Data Guard :: Configure Archivelog Deletion Policy To Applied On Standby
Nov 16, 2012
I have a DR setup with the following configuration
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 30 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF; # default
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1 BACKUP TYPE TO BACKUPSET;
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION FOR DATABASE OFF; # default
CONFIGURE ENCRYPTION ALGORITHM 'AES128'; # default
CONFIGURE COMPRESSION ALGORITHM 'BASIC' AS OF RELEASE 'DEFAULT' OPTIMIZE FOR LOAD TRUE ; # default
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG DELETION POLICY TO APPLIED ON STANDBY
I dont want to backup the STDBY DB but I want the ARC files to be removed when applied so my flash area does not fill up. Is there some command(rman or not) that can fire off this policy?

How to make the automatic deletion of all the archivelogs when it is applied successfully on the standby database? We have 1 primary database and 1 standby database using oracle physical dataguard.
In the primary database, we have daily backup job so that the applied archivelogs are deleted automatically, no problem
But in the standby database ( physical standby) I have to go there and delete manually because I don't issue backup on this database. Is there any solution for this problem.

I'm on a Windows server 2003 R2 64 bit, database is 11.1.0.7. From RMAN connected to the target and the catalog, this is a show all;
RMAN> show all;
RMAN configuration parameters for database with db_unique_name ORCL are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 3 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION OFF;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 'F:oracleadmin
[code]....
I'm running incremental backups, a level 0 on sunday and a level 1 the other days of the week, this is the ctl file:
LEVEL 0:
connect target /@ORCL
connect catalog rman/rmanpw@rmancat
RUN
{
[code]....
The level 0 does delete the archive logs (because of the delete input). Each backupset has two copies of the archive logs (which is what I want), and I expected the logs to be deleted after being backed up 2 days (each day is twice, 2 days = 4 times). But it's not deleting the logs, even after 6 runs.

I 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)

Till now i was pretty sure that standby redologs are applied to database without any delay, but everything looks that the process is different. i did on primary server table and add some records to this table.
Next i switch to standby and open redologs (with hex editor) to look for this "create table" and "insert" commands. and i succeeded. so this is prove that standby log are supplied by primary database.
Next i cancelled recovery process and open database in read only mode and there was no records in this standby db, moreover there wasn't any table on standby. so i started to be confused, because i suspected that this table and it content will be on standby database.
Next i started recover process again for standby database and do some switch log on primary server. after that i back to standby, cancel recovery process and open database in read only mode. there was table and contents for it.
so my question is:
does standby redologs should be applied online to database or they are only applied after promoting standby database to primary database?
it looks like contents only from archivelog is applied to standby database. it is correct?
database is 9i.

I have a setup where i have one physical and logical standby from a primary database. In case of switch over between primary and physical database my logical apply gets stopped. Can a logical database be applied from a physical standby ?

I created a standby database yesterday and everything is working correctly. I need to make some tweaks, however, and one of those is the directory that the standby database expects the archivelogs to be.
I found that the archivelogs were being shipped to $ORACLE_HOME/dbs and named arch*.arc. Interestingly a log switch ships the archivelog minus the "arch" at the front and all archivelogs now do not have that format. I moved the archivelogs to the correct location and renamed them. I have been able to set the correct location using standby_archive_dest and can see that the archivelogs are shipped to there.
Also, v$archived_log shows the correct path and filename. The problem I have is that when I come to apply the archivelogs it still seems to think that they should be in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs and named with "arch" at the front. what parameter I need to change to tell oracle the correct path and filename to use when applying the archivelogs?

I have a RAC system with DR set-up, this is a test environment and it doesn't have any backup, why DR is required but it exist. Since this is a test a lot or archives gets generated and deleting the archives has become a daily job for this server manually.
I want have a script to delete archive logs which is in non-ASM (i.e. filesystem) after ensuring that the archive log has been applied in standby database. If this can done only by RMAN.

I need a clarification on the below query.
I am having a Dataguard setup as Logical.
I am copying all the archive log files generated in the live server into the local server in order to apply into the Data Guard.
I am running a script for this process.
Question:How i can verify whether particular archive log file was applied into the data guard or not.

Currently 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

ORA-16401: archivelog rejected by RFS
Cause: An attempt was made to re-archive an existing archivelog. This usually happens because either a multiple primary database or standby database(s) or both are trying to archive to this standby database.
Action: See alert log and trace file for more details. No action is necessary; this is an informational statement provided to record the event for diagnostic purposes.
it seems to be that there are multiple primary database, but it is not based on the information from v$database.Right now the physical standby database cannot received any archive logs from the primary.I've checked the database_role in both servers, they are as they are designated.
from the physical standby database

CTA PHYSICAL STANDBY NOT ALLOWED
SYS@cta>alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session
[code]....
the standby is always busy, i.e. SESSIONS ACTIVE. i.e make sure the archived logs are shipped and apply over to physical standby.
I'm using Oracle 10.2.0.4 and os is windows.

We have two Windows 2008 VMs with Oracle 11G configured as primary and standby.This configuration has been defined by a partner who is no longer working for us.We have broken the correct application of the redo log on the standby when we have not correctly restored some snapshots on those two VMs.I would like to create a new Oracle server that will become the new standby. For that, I need too :
- Display the full dataguard configuration to reproduce it on the new server
- Stop (delete ?) the configuration on the primary server.
We also have the current problem that RMAN refuses to delete old archivelog since they have not been applied to the standby.

I 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

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.)

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:

Web server (2 server for Failover)= RHEL
For DR
Database (1 node)-Solaris 10
need to know
1.What are the best practice to implement and to configure DR as Non-RAC physical standby for RAC database server.
2.What are implication if we go for single node except failover node unavailability for DR.
3.What are the steps of Switchover in this case.
4.What's the recommended backup solution for 8-10 Terabyte database
