Data Guard :: Archived Logs Not Applied On Standby But Looks Ok
Jan 11, 2012I got a database on dataguard and my primary (db1) is shipping files to my standby (db2) with no problems.However, when I query:
select sequence#, status, applied from v$archived_log;
I see this:
SEQUENCE# S APP
---------- - ---
4 A YES
5 A YES
6 A YES
7 A YES
8 A YES
9 A YES
10 A YES
11 A YES
12 A YES
13 A YES
14 A YES
[code]....
So I did an alter system switch logfile on db1 then looked again and I can see new archived logs being applied.I thought all archived logs had to be applied on the standby since this is the very foundation of the standby database.Am I going to run in trouble later if I have a failover (unsynchronized database)
Data Guard :: GAP Archived Log Transport To Database

Data Guard :: Copying Archived Log File From Primary To DR
Sep 21, 20111) How to copy the ARCHIVED LOG FILE from Primary to DR location. Where if the DR is having the file already, how to SKIP that Particular Archived log file?
2) I have Checked with the FILE_TRANSFER DBMS package, but it gives the error if any file existing already.
Data Guard :: Finding Unapplied Archived Log File In DR?
Sep 21, 2011I wanted to make a script for applying the Archived log File in to DR by certain interval.
1) I will use the below view for finding the SEQUENCE so far applied.select sequence# from v$log_archive.
2) But how i can compare with the archive log files available in physical location with the above mentioned view.
eg:- the above view shows, the till the sequence 46789 is applied.And in the DR physical Location available sequences are 46795. which means 6 more archived log files are more, which are not applied into the DR so far.
Data Guard :: Transfer Archived Log Files To Standby Database
Oct 8, 20111> Does dataguard in 10g use ftp/rsh to transfer archived log files to standby database or some other protocol?
2> In my primary database, archives are getting generated normally, there is no error in alert log file. But archives are not getting transferred to standby database. I am able to connect through sys user from primary server to standby database & vice versa.
Also, tnsping is working fine.
All was working fine till 2 days back & no parameter has been changed from database side. I am not able to transfer the file manually through FTP to standby server. Does it is the problem? Or dataguard doesnt use FTP protocol to transfer the files?
Data Guard :: CLEARING Status For Logs?
Oct 25, 2011I'm using oracle 10.2.0.3. on windows 2003. I've implemented physical stanby and it was working fine until last week. No problem on primary DB. Archived logs are sent normally to standby. And standby DB is also able to apply the archived logs coming from primary. I've already check data on standby DB after opening it with READ ONLY option : data are exported normally and I can read them.
The issue is the status of logs in view v$log on standby database.
select group#,status from v$log;
group# status
1 clearing_current
2 clearing
3 clearing
I've tried this :
On standby DB :
SQL> RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE CANCEL;
Media recovery complete.
SQL> alter database open read only;
complete.
SQL> alter database clear logfile group 1;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database clear logfile group 2;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database clear logfile group 3;
Database altered.
SQL> select * from v$log;

I go back into recovery mode and my status says clearing_current.

I know that the good status is ACTIVE or CURRENT or INACTIVE...
Data Guard :: Deleting Logs In Standby
Jan 27, 2011I've a primary database and a physical standby.Logs are shipping perfectly from primary to standby.The logs that are applied on the standby are getting stored in a mount point(LINUX-/opt2) which consumes more space(160 GB). Will that be right if I go ahead and delete them?
My rman configurations in primary is:
RMAN> show all;
using target database control file instead of recovery catalog
RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 4;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;

RMAN Backup Without Archived Logs?
Jul 28, 2013Assuming you have a 9i database . where you have it enabled in archive mode , yet constantly deleting the archived redo logs , due to space constraints .
Will you be able to perform a full level 0 backup , and the following incremental backups , in the absence of the archived redo logs ? And are these incremental backups enough to recover the database or particular data files , to the point of the backup itself at least ?

How to Apply / Recover These Logs on Standby Database?
Data Guard :: Archive Logs Are Being Shipped But Not Applied
Jun 27, 2013Currently I am at the point where the configuration has been completed, and I just need to sync the standby database to the primary one. I can see in the log files that the archive logs are being shipped, but they are not applied on the standby system.
If I run "recover standby database;" manually in sqlplus I can see that it is trying to apply an archive log which is way too old (ORA-00279: change 9656498443 generated at 04/29/2008 08:45:08 needed for thread 1). I
n the alert log I can also see this error: Warning: Recovery target destination is in a sibling branch of the controlfile checkpoint. Recovery will only recover changes to datafiles.
At this point I was thinking that the standby database might be on a different incarnation compared to the primary, but this is not the case, they are both in incarnation 6:6 6 MVF 4023175798 CURRENT 48493546257 13-06-21

View 1 Replies View RelatedSparing Archived Redo Logs From Retention Policy?
Oct 4, 2010I'm running Oracle 9i on AIX 5.2. I'm not using a recovery catalog, nor am I using media management software. I perform a full, online rman backup of the database and archived redo logs daily to disk, then use operating system commands to copy the backup to tape. There is only space on disk for two days' backups, so I need to have a retention policy of "redundancy = 1", and run a "delete obsolete" prior to the backup. The problem is that I don't want to subject the archived redo logs to this retention policy.
I have two physical standby databases connected by WAN to the primary site, and I might need archived redo logs that are a few days (or more) old in the event of a prolonged WAN outage. I've read about the "keep forever" option, but apparently it isn't available without using a recovery catalog. Is there any way to spare the archived redo logs from my retention policy?
Note: I want to "protect" the actual archived redo logs from the retention policy, not the backups of the archived redo logs.
RMAN :: Does Cold Backup Must Have Archived Redo Logs
Jul 25, 2012URL....I'm practicing for the OCP test and one of the questions is that there is a backup from yesterday and the last archived logs are from the day before yesterday not mentioned if it's cold or hot backup.
If its a cold backup - cant we recover it? is it a must to have the archived redo logs also when recovering a cold backup? That sounds not logical since those logs are made only for a hot backup. URL.....
Data Guard :: Logs Get Shipped But Not Applied - Due To Primary Database Reset
Jul 22, 2013I have a Sap Primry Database and also a standby db that was working perfectly.. We migrated the primary db from windows 2003 to windows 2008 and brought the primary db up.. I had to create a controlfile and do a system copy and had to reset the logs on the Primary.. All came up and when i checked the standby it was receiving the logs but after a month. i see that it was not applying the logs as I think because of the sequence number .. it stopped.
I did the ffg as per the attachement...My logs have been shipped across but not applied, But What worrries me is the log sequence number on my Primary
