View 1 Replies1> Does dataguard in 10g use ftp/rsh to transfer archived log files to standby database or some other protocol?
2> In my primary database, archives are getting generated normally, there is no error in alert log file. But archives are not getting transferred to standby database. I am able to connect through sys user from primary server to standby database & vice versa.
Also, tnsping is working fine.
All was working fine till 2 days back & no parameter has been changed from database side. I am not able to transfer the file manually through FTP to standby server. Does it is the problem? Or dataguard doesnt use FTP protocol to transfer the files?
I've only successfully duplicate a standby database.
from the alert log
ORA-00313: open failed for members of log group 1 of thread 1
ORA-00312: online log 1 thread 1: 'D:ORA102CTAREDO01.LOG'
ORA-27041: unable to open file

when I tried to add the online and standby redo log, it error out

As part of the duplicating operation, RMAN automates the following steps:
Creates a control file for the duplicate database
Restores the target datafiles to the duplicate database and performs incomplete recovery by using all available incremental backups and archived redo logs
Shuts down and starts the auxiliary instance (refer to "Task 4: Start the Auxiliary Instance" for issues relating to client-side versus server-side initialization parameter files)
Opens the duplicate database with the RESETLOGS option after incomplete recovery to create the online redo logs (except when running DUPLICATE ... FOR STANDBY, in which case RMAN does not open the database) when duplicating for standby database it does not create online redo logs. Duplicating a standby database does not creates online redo logs.
how should I add the online and standby redo logs. If I transfer the redo logs from primary to standby, it always encountered the the following error

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.)
I successfully created the standby database and the archive logs were properly moving on both the primary and the standby databases. For the proper transfer of the archive logs on the STANDBY database I used "FAL_CLIENT AND FAL_SERVER" in the pfile of the primary database specifying the location of the primary and the Standby respectively.
When I removed both the parameters from the pfile of the primary database still there was the transfer of the archive logs however there should not be "If I am not wrong" as I have removed both the parameters.
why there is still the transfer of the archive logs on the standby database.
I performed a switchover test of my Exadata databases last night. Both databases are running 11.2.0.2 (BP7) on top of GI of the same version.I'm using Data Guard Broker to administer the Data Guard configuration.
I have, as you'd expect, the standby_file_management set to AUTO, so any file changes/additions/deletions that are made on Primary should be applied to Standby also.And they have been. Until last night.
When I had switched over to running Primary on the Standby site, I got this error message:

ORA-25153: Temporary Tablespace is Empty
I checked and my two temp tablespaces existed, but had no files in them. These files are 200Gb and 448Gb in size, so you'd think you'd notice them going missing. This wasn't by any means the first time we switched over (and, yes, I did create temp files for Standby when I built it and first switched over)
We've switched over to Standby multiple times and even ran a whole day's processing against it and haven't seen this. Ultimately, it wasn't a big deal, because I just created a tempfile for each of the tablespaces and off we went.Nothing in MOS seems to mention something like this. Basically, it looks like the switchover process decided to eat my tempfiles but keep my temp tablespace defintion. Odd.

Above result is from standby database.I am trying to understand the concept of standby redo log.My stadby database protection_mode is MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE.
1) If i do changes in table on primary database and if i open standby database in Read-Only mode, i can see those changes immediately only if Real Time Apply is enabled. Am i correct? Database version is 10.2.0.4
2) From 11g, It is possible to apply redo while the standby is open in read only mode. prior to 11g, it was not possible. Right?
3) Should I first cancel Managed Recovery prior to issuing “ALTER DATABASE COMMIT TO SWITCHOVER TO PRIMARY”?
What is the purpose of Standby Redo Log Files in Data Guard configuration? When it is utilized by the database?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI got a primary database with a logical standby database running Oracle 11g. I got two client applications, one is the production site pointing to the primary one, another one is just a backup site pointing to the logical one.Things will only be written into the primary database every mid night and client applications can only query the database but not add, update nor delete.And now, I want to apply the latest patch on both of my databases. I am also the DNS administrator, I can make the name server pointing to the backup site instead of the production one.I want to firstly apply the patch on the logical one, and then the physical one.
I found some reference which explains how to apply patches by adopting "Rolling Upgrade Method". however, I want to avoid doing any "switch over" mentioned in the reference because I can make use of name server. Can I just apply patches as the following way?
1)Stop SQL apply
2)Apply patches on logical standby database
3)let the name server point to the backup site
4)Apply patches on the primary database
5)Start SQL apply
6)Let the name server point back to the production site
If flashback is enable in physical standby database 1. If we failover at 11AM can I flash back NEW primary database to 6 AM ? 2. if I convert physically standby database to snapshot standby database at 11AM , Can I flashback snapshot standby database to 6 AM and do some works on it (DML operations) then converting the snapshot standby database into physical standby database ?

2) Rman incremantal backup from scn

I have set up a single instance standbys for rac databases. Now, I need to offload the backups from the primary on to the standbys.
1. cancel managed recovery
2. connect to target(standby) and catalog and backup the standby
3. put standby in managed recovery mode.
I think following these steps, I can restore primary(?). Now, My question is, how can I use these standby backups to clone/refresh databases? I tried it by connecting to target(primary), catalog and auxiliary but rman is using the primary backups instead of standby's to refresh the auxiliary database.
i have done oracle data guard between two databases (database A is the primary) and (database B is the standby), and it was working fine for two weeks, then the network admin did some changes on the firewall on standby side, which made the primary database can not write on standby redo log , so archives was generated on primary and do not generated on standby by, now we solve the firewall probelm and new archives generated on primary is generated on atandby too, but now i have a gap in archives on standby database and standby database now is not synchronized with primary database, and data changes happen on primary is not reflected on standby, also archives that were generated on primary and did not generated on standby during the problem time is not registered in V$ARCHIVED_LOG neither on primary database nor on standby database
