RMAN – crosscheck archivelog – validation failed for archived log 

Error:

name=/u01/oracle/archives/LOG0000007225_0705278833_0001.ARC RECID=7216 STAMP=896284282
validation failed for archived log

Cause:

Cause of this message is because archive log file destination was changed or someone deleted/moved the archive log files manually using OS commands.
Use “DELETE EXPIRED ARCHIVELOG ALL” will alleviate the VALIDATION FAILED messages.

Solution:

RMAN> crosscheck archivelog all;
RMAN> delete expired archivelog all;

(or)

run {
allocate channel d1 device type disk;
crosscheck archivelog all;
delete noprompt expired archivelog all;
release channel d1;
}

EXIT;
