Using APPEND hint avoid inserting data rows in redolog?

Hello,

Our environment is a Oracle Database 19.8 in archive log mode and using RMAN for database Backup and Recovery. We have decided to use NOLOGGING along with APPEND hint to avoid the excesive redo log and archive generated by DML operations over some tables. We have activated the NOLOGGING option on these tables. The application that uses these tables is managed by another company so we have requested them to use the hint APPEND in each DML that modifies these tables.

Its responde is that the hint APPEND is not needed because "APPEND hint only applies to avoid saving rows in the redolog in case the DML operation fails and that using NOLOGGING is enough to avoid overloading the filesystem with the archive generated"

Howdy, Stranger!
