18-12. How to avoid generating REDO entries

Even though a database is in archive log mode, it’s possible to individually disable logging for a particular table. To do so:

  • Set the NOLOGGING attribute for the table or
  • Specifying the UNRECOVERABLE Clause in the Control File. Example:

    UNRECOVERABLELOAD DATAINFILE 'sample.dat'INTO TABLE emp(ename VARCHAR2(10), empno NUMBER(4));
