对于stream复制环境的源数据库一端，对归档日志的清理需要注意一些问题，不是所有的归档都可以随意删除，如果误删了capture进程还需要读取的归档日志就会出现capture虽然能正常启动 status也是enable状态，但是数据缺法复制。
    这里需要注意一个capture进程的参数REQUIRED_CHECKPOINT_SCN这个参数表示capture进程重新启动时需要scan的最小scn号，可以通过这个参数找到需要为capture进程保留的归档日志。这里还需要讲的一个参数是capture进程的_CHEKPOINT_FREQUENCY参数这个参数的表示logminer做一次checkpoint需要挖掘的日志大小，这个参数的单位是M，ORACLE官方建议设置为500M，也就是说当logminer处理了500M大小的redo的时候会做一次logminer的checkpoint，checkpoint之后REQUIRED_CHECKPOINT_SCN被更新，所以通过设_CHEKPOINT_FREQUENCY的大小，可以控制需要保留的归档的大小，可以使用dbms_capture_adm.set_parameter过程修改_CHEKPOINT_FREQUENCY参数

下面是一个测试例子：
通过REQUIRED_CHECKPOINT_SCN确定需要保留的archive log：
SQL> conn strmadmin/strmadmin
Connected.
SQL> COLUMN CONSUMER_NAME HEADING 'Capture|Process|Name' FORMAT A15
SQL> COLUMN SOURCE_DATABASE HEADING 'Source|Database' FORMAT A10
SQL> COLUMN SEQUENCE# HEADING 'Sequence|Number' FORMAT 99999
SQL> COLUMN NAME HEADING 'Required|Archived Redo Log|File Name' FORMAT A40
SQL> SELECT r.CONSUMER_NAME,
  2  r.SOURCE_DATABASE,
  3  r.SEQUENCE#,
  4  r.NAME
  5  FROM DBA_REGISTERED_ARCHIVED_LOG r, DBA_CAPTURE c
  6  WHERE r.CONSUMER_NAME = c.CAPTURE_NAME AND
  7  r.NEXT_SCN >= c.REQUIRED_CHECKPOINT_SCN;
Capture                             Required
Process         Source     Sequence Archived Redo Log
Name            Database     Number File Name
--------------- ---------- -------- ----------------------------------------
CAPTURE_A       SOURCE          100 /arch/1_100_714317792.dbf
CAPTURE_A       SOURCE          101 /arch/1_101_714317792.dbf
CAPTURE_A       SOURCE          102 /arch/1_102_714317792.dbf
CAPTURE_A       SOURCE          103 /arch/1_103_714317792.dbf
CAPTURE_A       SOURCE          104 /arch/1_104_714317792.dbf

可以看到capture重新启动的时候需要的日志是从sequence 100以后的,现在我们首先关闭掉capture然后rename/arch/1_100_714317792.dbf
再重新启动capture，观察caputre情况

可以看到capture已经恢复正常工作

现在我们在来看看capture的状态

由此可见对于stream环境的archive log管理一定要注意保留capture重启所需要的archive log，以免capture无法启动
