Fix Recommendation

To define additional redo log file groups:

From SQL*Plus (Example):
alter database add logfile group 2 ('diska:log2.log', 'diskb:log2.log') size 50K;

To add additional redo log file [members] to an existing redo log file group:

From SQL*Plus (Example):
alter database add logfile member 'diskc:log2.log' to group 2;

Replace diska, diskb, diskc with valid, different disk drive specifications.
Replace log#.log file with valid names for the log files.

Check Contents

From SQL*Plus:

select count(*) from V$LOG;
If the value of the count returned is less than 2, this is a finding.

From SQL*Plus:

select count(*) from V$LOG where members > 1;
