Data Guard :: Apply Redo While Standby Open In Read Only Mode?
Apr 9, 2013
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”?
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.)
Suddenly I can't open any of my physical standby databases read only. Alert log snippet and trace files follow post. I'm running 9.2.0.1.0 on all hosts, which are running AIX 5.2. I've successfully opened all physical standby databases read only numerous times in the past. solve this? Is it possible that these standby databases cannot be switched over to primary should the need arise?
Here's how I typically open a physical standby database read only:
alter database recover managed standby database cancel; alter database open read only;
Errors in file /ora/product/9.2.0.1.0/rdbms/log/icps1_ora_27382.trc: ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1 ORA-16000: database open for read-only access
i have attended an interview there i got a question like--->There are 100 archives generated in standby in that a series of five archives are missing and those are not available in the primary then how will you do.....

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.
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 OSD-04002: unable to open file O/S-Error: (OS 2) The system cannot find the file specified.

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

based on my understanding from [URL] ....
Quote:
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 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:
I 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
I believe, in a multiple RAC Physical Standby nodes only one node applies the archivelogs to the standby database. How you can find which node is the APPLY NODE using a SQL query?
I know you can veiw this information by querying the standby configuration using DGMGRL but how would you find out this information from a remote client using SQLPlus/PLSQL?
i, I've Two database one for primary(GISC) and one for standby (GISCST) when i start open standby database i appeare erro :

For the maximum protection and maximum availability as well as to enable Real Time Apply we need to setup the standby redo log group. My question is what would be the standby redo log group configuration in case if we setup single instance standby database for 2-Node RAC primary database. Do we require a separate standby redo thread for each primary online redo thread or RFS use the Multiple Standby redo group from the same thread to receive the redo changes from both the node ?
I want to replace one redo log on the primary database. actually this redo log is on G:oracleoradata; I want to move it on F:oracleoradata. How to do that cause the same redo log is also on standby database?
How i create Standby Database in Same HOST, we using SUN OS 5.8.
I read form Oracle DOC that i can create Standby Database in Same HOST and follow the tutorial , but when i try to mount standby database using ALTER DATABASE MOUNT STANDBY DATABASE EXCLUSIVE; i got a error message ORA-01102: cannot mount database in EXCLUSIVE mode
1)On primary Database Standby Redo log is required for switchover and on standby database Standby Redo log is required for
--Real time Apply --Maximum protection or Maximum availability
Am I correct?
2)My database is in Maximum Performance mode. I set up following entry on init.ora: LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2='service=standby LGWR ASYNC'. My question is do I need to have STANDBY Redo log file on standby database in order to use LGWR transport (LGWR ASYNC)mode from primary? Without Standby redo log on standby database can it transport redo data from primary to standby using LGWR transport mode (LGWR ASYNC)?
3)I have changed from the "ARCH" attribute to "LGWR" attribute of the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n initialization parameter. But I have not changed the protection mode. I would like to know whether is there any impact in the behavior of the database, if we do not change the mode from "MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE" to "MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY"?
I'm trying to create a physical standby database on my Oracle9i DB runing on WinXP.
Note: I have both Primary and Standby on the same system.
Actually everything went well .... I did created the standby DB but the problem is I can not start my primary DB if my standby DB is mounted. I get this error:
ORA-01102: cannot mount database in EXCLUSIVE mode
And when I read about the error message I learnt that I should start my DB in compatible mode ...
we have a created primary and physical standby databases. Before the switchover the application connected to dataguard allows updates on the database. However after the switchover, it allows read-only access and we are unable to update. Any comments prima-facie ?

I have to implement Physical standby using same SID. parameters required to set on Primary and standby. Also what entries are required to do in TNS file. Recently we have faced hardware failure.
I want to get the execute plan of a sql in standby database(read only),but failed,how can i do?
