Closes the current error log file and cycles the error log extension
numbers just like a server restart. The new error log contains version
and copyright information and a line indicating that the new log has
been created.
Every time SQL Server is started, the current error log is renamed to errorlog.1; errorlog.1 becomes errorlog.2, errorlog.2 becomes errorlog.3, and so on. sp_cycle_errorlog enables you to cycle the error log files without stopping and starting the server.

Understanding "login failed" (Error 18456) error messages in SQL Server 2005
Got login errors in the SQL Server 2005 databases. The following link solves the issue.
Understanding "login failed" (Error 18456) error messages in SQL Server 2005
If the server encounters an error that prevents a login from succeeding, the client will display the following error mesage.
Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Server
Login failed for user '
Note that the message is kept fairly nondescript to prevent information disclosure to unauthenticated clients. In particular, the 'State' will always be shown to be '1' regardless of the nature of the problem. To determine the true reason for the failure, the administrator can look in the server's error log where a corresponding entry will be written. An example of an entry is:
2006-02-27 00:02:00.34 Logon Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 8.
2006-02-27 00:02:00.34 Logon Login failed for user ''. [CLIENT:
n
The
key to the message is the 'State' which the server will accurately set
to reflect the source of the problem. In the example above, State 8
indicates that the authentication failed because the user provided an
incorrect password. The common error states and their descriptions are
provided in the following table:
|

Solution:
To solve ORA-19809 error, increase the value of db_recovery_file_dest_size parameter. And start the database:
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST_SIZE=3G SCOPE=BOTH;
SQL> shutdown abort
SQL> startup
