Redo logs stores the changes made to existing data, file sizes, addition of new files etc... any change made to DB is recorded.

Hi,

Redo logs contain a record of changes that have been made to datafiles. In a single-instance Oracle database, redo logs are stored in two or more redo log file groups. Each of these groups contains a redo log file and possibly one or more mirrored copies of that file .

Oracle RAC database with two instances, instance A and instance B. If instance A is down, then instance B can read the redo log files for both instance A and B to ensure a successful recovery. In an Oracle RAC database, all the redo log files reside on shared storage.

In addition,each instance must have access to the redo log files of all the other instances in the cluster. If Oracle RAC database uses ASM, then ASM manages the shared storage for the redo log files and the access to those files.

In Oracle instances with standby databases for providing level of protection, the redo data needed to recover each transaction must be written to standby redolog files as well .

Thanks & Regards,
Vinod
