Querying V$LOG_HISTORY should help, but it will only tell you how many log
switches occurred. You can get a good ballpark-estimate figure by counting
the rate of log switches per day and multiplying by the size of your
(largest) online redo log files. In SQL*Plus:
column mb new_value V_MB
select max(bytes)/1048576 mb
from v$log;
col cnt format 999,990
col est_vol_of_redo format 999,990.00
select trunc(first_time), count(*) cnt, count(*) * &&V_MB
est_vol_of_redo
from v$log_history
group by trunc(first_time);
...or something like that. As you can see, if you have multiple-sized
online redo log files (a *very* bad practice!), the calculated volume could
be unduly high. Also, if something has been causing log switches to occur
short of filling the log files (i.e. frequent ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE,
frequent SHUTDOWN, etc), then the calculated volume will be unduly high as
well. But it's probably better to err on the high side anyway...?
Hope this helps...
