Data Guard :: How To Convert Primary Control File For Standby

Dec 29, 2009

I try to recover standby db from a primary db backup set,but the standby control file is different.

to create primary controlfile by rman:
backup control file format '/home/cur_control';

to create standby controlfile:
backup control file for standby format '/home/std_control';

I want to know if there is method to convert cur_control to std_control.

Data Guard :: Create Control File With Standby Keyword On Primary Database

Jul 4, 2012

What is difference when you issue a create controlfile with "standby" keyword on the primary database

ALTER DATABASE CREATE STANDBY CONTROLFILE AS '/path/db_stby.ctl';

vs. creating a control using

ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE to '/path/db_control.ctl';

what does ORACLE put into the standby control that is "extra"? ie. what is the difference between a standby control file and a normal control file?

Data Guard :: Convert Snapshot Database (standby) Directly To Primary?

Dec 16, 2012

(Oracle 11gR1 OEL 5)Is there any possibility to convert snapshot database (standby) directly to Primary. Instead of manual switchover I want to do this

I have checked that snapshot creates a guaranteed restoration point which reverts back changes in Standby.

Data Guard :: Possible To Convert Logical Standby To Physical Standby

Aug 30, 2013

My steps for testing as below:

1.create a primary database
2.duplicate a physical standby database;
3.turn on flashback on both databases.
4.record SCN xxx on physical standby database.
5.convert physical standby to logical standby (using keep identity statement)
6.flashback to logical standby to xxx
7.convert logical standby to physical standby
8.using real time apply I got errors: Fast Parallel Media Recovery enabledManaged Standby Recovery starting Real Time ApplyMRP0:

Data Guard :: Getting Standby Host And DB Name From Primary

Oct 25, 2012

I'd like to know the Standby hostname and database name (db_unique_name) from primary using SQL. Simply put, which table in primary datbase gives us the standby host and the database name. I am aware that TNSNAMES.ORA contains details, but we cannot use SQL for that. I am also aware of V$ARCHIVED_LOG's DEST_ID column. But, the DEST_ID will not show the host and the db names, neither does V$PARAMETER's LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n if SERVICE parameter is set to Connect Identifier.

If I further paraphrase my problem, how I'd relate a dest_id to a standby host and database using SQL.

SELECT <columns> FROM <v$some_view> WHERE dest_id IN (2, 3);

DEST_ID      HOST_NAME      DATABASE_NAME
--------------------------------------------------------
2            host2           standby_1
3            host3           standby_2DB version : 10g
OS : Solaris 10

Data Guard :: Primary Not Open After Standby Configuration

Jul 19, 2011

I did standby before and it works wighout any disturbations and even configuration seems to me not very complicated - but it was before. now i am trying to do standby configuration once again. there is database named DESK.

two physical serwers:
sczepl-db07 - primary
r00979 - standby

on each for this serwer there is listener listening on port 1521, and on each is tnsnames configured properly:

for sczepl-db07
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = sczepl-db07)(PORT = 1521))
[code]....

so why primary don't see standby db and claims that ther is no standby service? i proved that there is connection primary <--> standby.

Data Guard :: 11.1.0.7 RAC Primary To Single Instance Standby Using 11.1.0.6

Mar 2, 2011

Primary:

2 NODE RAC Cluster/Linux x86-64/11.1.0.7.4 RDBMS

Standby server:

Brand new box, and I installed 11.1.0.6 (software only)

I have a brand new box set-up for a single-instance standby database, and I have installed 11.1.0.6 software only.

Do I need to patch 11.1.0.6 to 11.1.0.7 before I send a copy of the primary over to be set-up as a standby? If so, how do I patch 11.1.0.6 without having a local database in place as this server will only be used for a standby? Can patching the oracle_home only be done?

Data Guard :: Query Regarding Standby Database State When Primary Is Down / Unreachable

Feb 20, 2013

I want to know if there is any reflection on the standby database states when it's primary is down or not reachable? I want to use this information from standby node to determine if I can programmatically execute (dgmgrl) failover operation or not? This is considering that the broker configuration has no fast-start failover and no observer enabled/configured.

Data Guard :: Change Instance Parameter Of Primary Database And Standby

Nov 29, 2011

I have a requirement to change the instance parameter of the primary database and standby in the data guard. Any procedure to do the same. I have to do it directly on production and there is no test set up so I cannot experiment . The procedure I am thinking of is as below.

1. Stop the standby

2. backup the primary

3. Change the parameter and restart to make it effective

4. Start the primary

5. Go to stand by

6. Change the parameter and mount the database.

7. Check if both are in sync and apply logs if not.

Data Guard :: Change Server B To Standby Database With A Running As Primary

Oct 4, 2010

I new to data guard concept.

I am using oracle 10g with data guard configured , I have primary ( A ) and standby database ( B ) .But because of some unavoidable conditions the primary database ( A ) got shutdown and was not starting , We shifted the standby database ( B ) at new location and changed it to primary with following command ,

startup mount;
alter database recover managed standby database finish;
alter database commit to switchover to physical primary;
shutdown;
startup;

This new primary ( B ) was open for end users for 2 days during which old primary ( A ) was shutdown .

I took the backup of ( B ) and restored it on A AND shutdown the B . Now A is acting as Primary database. Server B is shutdown . I want to change server B to standby database with A running as Primary .Is it possible ?

Data Guard :: Primary Database Is RAC And Physical Standby Is Single Instance

Mar 27, 2013

I am using Oracle RAC 11.2.0.3 as primary database, we are going to start using Oracle data guard. So I am designing my infrastructure and planing to use Oracle 11.2.0.3 Single instance as my physical stand by database.

My question is it feasible to have my standby database as single instance while the primary is RAC? is it feasible to build my Oracle single instance standby database from the RMAN backup of the RAC primary database? Is there any restrictions (or any points to be taken into consideration) since my primary database is RAC while the physical standby is Oracle single instance?

in the below link

[URL].......

it was mentioned that primary can be RAC or single and same for standby, but my question is it feasible to have primary as RAC while standby as single instance? or it should be like each others?

The primary database can be either a single-instance Oracle database or an Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) database. Similar to a primary database, a standby database can be either a single-instance Oracle database or an Oracle RAC database.

Data Guard :: Apply Standby Redo Log To Physical Standby Database

May 26, 2013

I have dataguard configuration operating in maximum availability mode with a local standby db (A - lgwr sync not using real time apply) and a remote standby db (B - lgwr async). I then simualted a crash of my primary database with batch jobs running. Since the stby db A is in lgwr sync option ,all the commited data in the current online redo log has been transmitted to stby A and is present in its stby redo log (Group 2).How do I apply this stby redo log to the remote stby db.

Tried the following methods.

1.ftp the stby redo log to the remote db and tried to regiter it, got an error that it is not completely archived.

2.issued the recover standby database command and supplied the stby redo log when it asked for the sequence in the stby redo, got an error saying there is corruption in a block(tried this option multiple times ended up with the same result.)
