Cause: An attempt has been made to remove the last member of a log file

ORA-00304 requested INSTANCE_NUMBER is busy

Cause: An instance tried to start by using a value of the initialization parameter

INSTANCE_NUMBER that is already in use.

ORA-00301 error in adding log file 'string' - file cannot be created

Cause: The creation of the redo log file failed

Action: Check whether:

1. There is enough storage space on the device

2. The name of the file is valid

3. The device is online

4. An I/O error occurred

Also, it is possible REUSE was specified on the command line and a file of the

incorrect size exists. Either do not specify REUSE or use a file of the correct size.

ORA-00257 archiver error. Connect internal only, until freed.

Cause: The archiver process received an error while trying to archive a redo

log. If the problem is not resolved soon, the database will stop executing

transactions. The most likely cause of this message is the destination device is

out of space to store the redo log file.

Action: Check the archiver trace file for a detailed description of the problem.

Also, verify that the device specified in the initialization parameter ARCHIVE_

LOG_DEST is set up properly for archiving.
