We have DB consultants here that must have missed this piece of info re: "inserted after the online redo log is successfully archived". I'm not a Oracle expert, all I know is that rsync sees a file that needs transferring (completed or not).
The bit about rsync behavior was just a suggestion for a situation where something like V$ARCHIVE_LOG was not available. I wasn't sure if --check-source-file-change (or whatever) would be a useful feature. K.
