-Do not set `log.mining.archive.destination.name` to the path where the archive logs are written by Oracle.
-Instead, this property should refer to the value in the `DEST_NAME` column in the `V$ARCHIVE_DEST_STATUS` table for the preferred row that satisfies your archive log retention policy.
+Do not set the value of `log.mining.archive.destination.name` to the path that the database uses for the archive logs.
