Standby by database
OS: AIX
DB: 11g
In a physical standby database setup, I had to perform a incomplete recovery at my Primary database and due to which I had to open my Primary database with resetlogs option.
What should I do with the Standby database, do I need to create a new one as the redos of my Primary are reset with LSN 1?

Thanks shiva, it is a very good link. I have one more question which is pertaining to Standy database.
Please I need a answer for the below question:
Adding new datafile to Primary in Datagaurd setup.
The best option would be to place the tablespace in "backup mode" and move the corresponding datafile from primary to standby and create it using the "alter database create datafile" command. Once the copying is done, make sure you remove the tablespace from backup mode in the primary database.
The below link gives you an idea about creating the datafile on the standby database. But before that, as said earlier, place the corresponding tablespace of primary database in backup mode and copy the datafile to standby database manually.

Can a standby DR database in different datafile access path?
We are going to setup a standby DR database for the primary DB. The primary DB is in Oracle ASM. Can we setup the standby DB in regular flat file system, instead of using ASM?

Thanks,
I've never done it, but given that it is quite possible to have a given database with some data files on ASM and others on the file system, I don't see why not.
What keeps you from testing it and see for yourself? Use VirtualBox to create two separate vm's on your desktop and build the proof-of-concept there. -
Create a standby logical database in 10g
Hi,
My OS is Windows 2003, using oracle 10g software.. I want to know steps to create a logical standby database from primary database? I read the Dataguard concepts and administration guide, its confusing where it says to add the roles for primary and standby database in init.ora file? Could someone please provide steps to configure...
Thank you.If you need the entire database to a single location ... use Data Guard.
If you need to specify tables, columns, schemas, rules, and are in a
publish-subscribe situation use Streams.
Both are share a common architecture.

Oracle 9i database software upgrade issue with standby (Dataguard) database
All,
I have encountered a problem in upgrading the Oracle software on 2 of our databases in-house. The databases in question here are using Dataguard, so one is set to primary and one is set to standby. The version that they are/were starting at is 9.2.0.7.
I was able to install and complete the 9.2.0.8 and 9.2.0.8 OCT CPU patches on the primary database, however when I moved to working on the standby database, I am got an error when attempting to follow step 6 of the post installation tasks:
Enter the following SQL*Plus commands:
SQL> STARTUP MIGRATE
SQL> SPOOL patch.log
SQL> @ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\rdbms\admin\catpatch.sql
SQL> SPOOL OFF
(Please note that this is my first experience with working with Dataguard, so my methods in updating might have been a bit off-base.)
If I attempt to startup the standby database in MIGRADE mode, I get the following error (which is expected):
ORA-01666: controlfile is for a standby database
If I try to run the catpatch.sql script, even after mounting the database in standby mode, I receive the additional error:
ORA-01219: database not open: queries allowed on fixed tables/views only
My question here is, how do I get the standby database to allow me to finish the software upgrade process, so that both versions of Oracle match on the primary and standby databases? :)
(I did try some research on Metalink, but only found an article detailing how to upgrade your dataguard database from 9i to 10g, which did not look especially helpful in this case...)
Thank you!
-SabrinaDepending on the kind of Dataguard you currently have, physical or logical, there are two useful metalinks notes:

Upgrading to 10g with a Logical Standby in Place

ORA-19505: failed to identify file - RMAN in creating standby DR database.
I got this error when creating standby database at remote target server.
ORA-19505: failed to identify file "/backup/dxp1p/online/DXP1P_CF_c-2027711285-20131204-01"
Here is what I did:
1. started the listener and created corresponding tnsnames entry at remote standyb server
2. startup nomount to the standby database at remote server for an empty instance (instance name dxp1p).
3. All rman backups are in the /backup mount point at primary and the mount point is shared on the remote server as nfs. So, whatever have in the backup we should be able to see and read from the remote as well.
4. Run the following at primary rman:
sql 'alter system archive log current';
backup current controlfile for standby;
sql 'alter system archive log current';
crosscheck backup;
crosscheck archivelog all;
exit
5. Start the rman command from primary after connected to the standby server, as the primary DB uses ASM and the standby DB uses file system for the database files:

Best Way to monitor standby, primary databases, including alert logs, etc.
Hi, Guys, I finally cutover the new environment to the new linux redhat and everything working great so far (the primary/standby).
Now I would like to setup monitoring scripts to monitor it automatically so I can let it run by itself.
What is the best way?
I talked to another dba friend outside of the company and he told me his shop not use any cron jobs to monitor, they use grid control.
We have no grid control. I would like to see what is the best option here? should we setup grid control?
And also for the meantime, I would appreciate any good ideas of any cronjob scripts.
ThanksHello;
I came up with this which I run on the Primary daily, Since its SQL you can add any extras you need.

Interesting issue with Logical Standby and database triggers
We have a Logical Standby that each month we export (expdp) a schema (CSPAN) that is being maintained by SQL Apply and import (impdp)it to a 'frozen copy' (eg CSPAN201104) using REMAP_SCHEMA.
This works fine although we've noticed that because triggers on the original schema being exported have the original schema (CSPAN) hard-referenced in the definition are imported into and owned by the new 'frozen' schema but are still 'attached' to the original schema's tables.
This is currently causing the issue where the frozen schema trigger is INVALID and causing the SQL Apply to fail. This is the error:
'CSPAN201104.AUD_R_TRG_PEOPLE' is
invalid and failed re-validation
Failed SQL update "CSPAN"."PEOPLE" set "ORG_ID" = 2, "ACTIVE_IND" = 'Y', "CREATE_DT" = TO_DATE('22-JUL-08','DD-MON-RR'),"CREATOR_NM" = 'LC', "FIRST_NM" = 'Test', "LAST_PERSON" ='log'...
Note: this trigger references the CSPAN schema (...AFTER INSERT ON CSPAN.PEOPLE...)
I suspect that triggers on a SQL Apply Maintained schema in a Logical Standby do not need to be valid (since they do not fire) but what if they reference a SQL Apply schema but are 'owned' by a non-SQL Apply schema? This trigger references a SQL Apply table so it should not fire
This is 10gR2 (10.2.0.4) on 64 bit Windows.
Regards
Graeme KingOK, I've finally got around to actually test this and it looks like you are not quite correct Larry in this statement...
'Since this trigger belongs to a new schema that is not controlled by SQL Apply (CSPAN201105) it will fire. But the trigger references a schema that is controlled by SQL Apply (CSPAN) so it will fail because it has to be validated.'
My testing concludes that even though the trigger belongs to a schema CSPAN201105 (not controlled by SQL Apply) and references a schema controlled by SQL Apply - it does not fire. However it DOES need to be valid or it breaks SQL Apply.
My testing was as follows:
Primary DB
Create new EMP table in CSPAN schema on Primary
Create new table TRIGGER_LOG in CSPAN schema on Primary
Create AFTER INSERT/UPDATE trigger on CSPAN.EMP table (that inserts into TRIGGER_LOG table)
**All of the above replicates to Standby**
Standby DB
Create new table TRIGGER_LOG_STNDBY in CSPAN201105 schema on Primary
Create new trigger in CSPAN201105 schema that fires on INSERT/UPDATE on CSPAN.EMP but that inserts into CSPAN201105.TRIGGER_LOG_STNDBY table)
Primary DB
Insert 4 rows into CSPAN.EMP
Update 2 rows in CSPAN.EMP
TRIGGER_LOG table has 6 rows as expected
Standby DB
TRIGGER_LOG table has 6 rows as expected
TRIGGER_LOG_STNDBY table has **0 rows**
Re-create trigger in CSPAN201105 schema that fires on INSERT/UPDATE on CSPAN.EMP but that inserts into CSPAN201105.TRIGGER_LOG_STNDBY table) **but with syntax error**
Primary DB
Update 1 row in CSPAN.EMP
TRIGGER_LOG table has 7 rows as expected
Standby DB
SQL Apply is broken - ORA-04098: trigger 'CSPAN201105.TEST_TRIGGER_TRG' is invalid and failed re-validation -
i have a two appliances of NAC Manager, i want to make a failover, but i only connect them with a crossover cable on eth1,
is it neccesary conect a serial cable?, because when i try to verify a failover they appear this:
“WARNING! Closed connections to peer [192.168.0.254] database! Please restart peer node to bring databases in sync!!” in each oneHi. I had a lot of those messages. In my scenario the failover bundle works OK during certain time but ocassionally the hearbeat fails (never knew why) and the warning messages appeared. Since there's no sync anymore the config in both manager will be different, so the very first thing to do is to backup the configuration. Please notice if the current active NAM is the primary or the secondary NAM (it's necessary to know this information for the later steps).
Then you will have to stop both NAM (service perfigo stop)
Now there's an extra step only if the last active NAM was the secondary : you will have to restore the backup into the primary NAM (since this NAM will have an outdated configuration).
Now back to the regular steps. You must start both NAM . The primary NAM will be the new active , synchronization will take some minutes, after that the "warning" will be cleared.
Please rate if it helps. -

Script has to be run from auxiliary.
Great details, but what I don't see is how you connect in RMAN.
Example
Start RMAN

connected to target database: RECOVER2 (DBID=3806912436)
connected to auxiliary database: RECLONE (not mounted)Nothing in your tnsnames or listener jumps out as wrong. I copied them into my text editor and compared against my working ones.
Generally for active duplication I start the future standby on a pfile NOMOUNT.
Auxiliary Instance Initialization Parameters Needed :
DB_NAME
CONTROL_FILES
DB_BLOCK_SIZE
( add extra parameters like DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT instead of using the SET command - clean up standby spfile right after duplication )
Then start RMAN and finally run a single line duplication command.
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target=sys/@primary auxiliary=sys/@standby

Creating logical standby database
Hi all,
10.2.0.1
Following this link
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/create_ls.htm
Where do i need to issue these statements:
SQL> EXECUTE DBMS_LOGSTDBY.BUILD;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE RECOVER TO LOGICAL STANDBY db_name;
on physical standby or primary database.
I issued the first stament on primary and second on physical standby .
IN the alert log of standby,i have the following entries.
Wed Jan 20 15:34:28 2010
Converting standby mount to primary mount.
Wed Jan 20 15:34:28 2010
ACTIVATE STANDBY: Complete - Database mounted as primary (treasury)
*** DBNEWID utility started ***
DBID will be changed from 306589979 to new DBID of 330710340 for database
.........................I am trying to create a logical standby database after creating a physical standby database.
It seems standby changed to primary which was not desired.
ThanksNot tried myself, but you might want to have a look at this URL.
It appears to suggest that you need to change names of datafiles as well as value db_name explcitly on standby. -
Problem Converting standby database from snapshot to physical
Any help willl be greatly appreciated...
I am trying to convert a standby database that is in "snapshot" mode back to "physical" standby and I am encountering problems in the process from the "DGMGRL" command line.
Both instances are on the same physical machine. Everything was working fine untill I tried to change the db from snapshot to physical. The DGMGRL starts the conversion process and is able to shutdown but when trying to restart the instance is fails and reports that the service is not defined.
Here is the issue I am facing:

So, here is the status now....with a little background...
After my original post, I started to read the manuals and I found the sql command to convert the database back from snapshot to physical standby (sb).
That worked fine and I had my snapshot sb back to physical sb.
So when you posted the suggestion, I already had my db in physical sb mode. I said no problem, I will convert it back to snapshot and then back again using dgmgrl instead of sql+
Well here is how my listener is configured now.
SID_LIST_I11G1 =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = I11G1.MHOST)
(ORACLE_HOME = c:\app\mmj\product\11.1.0\db_1)
(SID_NAME = I11G1)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = I11G1SB.MHOST)
(ORACLE_HOME = c:\app\mmj\product\11.1.0\db_1)
(SID_NAME = I11G1SB)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = I11G1SB_DGMGRL)
(ORACLE_HOME = c:\app\mmj\product\11.1.0\db_1)
(SID_NAME = I11G1SB)
Then using dgmgrl I tried to change the db from p-sb to s-sb and the results are not good....

Not sure if the following (notice the typo in the service name) in the parameter (log_archive_dest_2) definition on the standby d/b has anything to do with this. I did not get this error when I initially converted to s-sb.
also I checked all my session notes, I did not type the command to set this parameter on the standby d/b and so it was not a typo on my part. However, it seems to have come from the rman script supplied with the obe. This script is supposed to clone the primary d/b to a standby db and in the process replace the string /i11g1/ with /i11g1sb/.

I am tempted to start all over again, but I'd rather use this opportunity to debug this issue (as a learning exercise). I can always start from scratch. That brings up another Q: What do I need to do to blow away all traces of the stand by database (including all the archive logs etc...) keeping my primary intact. I'd also like to blow away all snapshot and archive logs for the primary as well. -
Cannot Convert standby database from snapshot to physical
Hello all,
I am using Oracle Entreprise version 11gR1 and had made the followings configuration:
- ANAISMD2 : primary database+_+
- ANAISMD3 : physical standby datbase. Created via RMAN
Both are located on the same host running a RH 4.
ANAISMD3 is maintained successfully with the primary.
I can make a fail-over between the both: it works fine.
I can convert ANAISMD3 from physical to snapshot via DGMGRL: it works fine
But I cannot convert back ANAISMD3 to physical, got an error ORA-12514
I had checked also the listener service for both ANAISMD2/ANAISMD3 before launching the conversion:
- the services shown on ANAISMD3 seems correct e.g. ANAISMD2 is seen as a remote server.
- but on ANAISMD2, ANAISMD3 seems incorrect e.g. ANAISMD3 is seen as a local server.
I had attached some screen shots of dg/lsnrctl results;
What are the mistakes
Thank in advance for support
==> Before I made the conversion , DGMGRL shows correct primary/standby status:

The command completed successfullyYou need to have static service registered with listener in this way. This is must because as you know when it converts db that time it shutsdown dbs also so all dynamic services are lost and dgmgrl is not ale to connect to db hence conversion fails.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = ORACLE_SID)
(GLOBAL_DBNAME=db_unique_name_DGMGRL.db_domain)
(ORACLE_HOME = /apps/oracle/product/11.1.0)
Plus with this make a entry in tnsnames.ora using service name from above or check from lsnrctl status look for service "db_unique_name_DGMGRL.db_domain"
e.g. this is my best practice how i give the names to tns entry
db_unique_name_DGMGRL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(SDU = 32767)
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = hostname)(PORT = port))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = db_unique_name_DGMGRL.db_domain)
Define same way in both primary and standby db.
Now use these tns entries to create configuration.
e.g.
create configuration prim_db as primary database is db_unique_name connect identifier is "db_unique_name_DGMGRL";
-- db_unique_name_DGMGRL from primary tns entry
add database stdby_db as connect identifier is "db_unique_name_DGMGRL" MAINTAINED AS PHYSICAL;
-- db_unique_name_DGMGRL from standby db tns entry
hope this will help -
How to apply the changes in logical standby database
Hi,
I am new to Dataguard. I am now using 10.2.0.3 and followed the steps from Oracle Data Guard Concepts and Administration Guide to setup a logical standby database.
When I insert a record to a table from the primary database side, when i query the same table from the logical standby database, it doesn't show the new records.
Did I miss something? What I want to do is when I insert a record in the primary db, then the corresponding record will be inserted in the standby db.
Or I totally misunderstand what Oracle data guard is? Any help are appreciated.
DenisHi
Can anyone help to answer me is my logical standby db have a archive gap?
