11gr2 bug on Linux with standby database

It looks like there is an oracle 11gr2 bug on linux with standby database. The following shows while activating standby database on Solairs, the standby database on Solaris will clear the standby logfile and recreate it. But, on Linux plateform it generated an exception instead. I don't beleive there is a bug open in metalink yet for this problem.

Rman backup with standby database

Hi All,
I am looking for some suggestions for rman backup with standby database with datagaurd but no active DG. I wanted to do a rman tablespace backup. but I am stuck at sql 'alter system archive log current' in rman with standby as target. which gives following errors with or without noswitch clause

Howto make a consistent RMAN backup in an Standby database in Active DataGuard mode (Doc ID 1419923.1)

10gR2 to 11gR2 from Windows to Linux with 6TB Database.

Hi,
I need to do migration from 10gR2 to 11.2.0.2.0 and from Windows to Linux for 6TB database Size. As both Endian format same, I did the migration using RMAN Convert database on UAT but for same 10gR2 version.(Both Source on Target Oracle Version was 10.2.01.0). Now I have to migrate from 10gR2 to 11.2.0.2.0. So it's 2 way process.
is it possible to club these 2 way migration process ???
Are following steps right or any modification is required ??
1) Install 11.2.0.2.0 on Linux OS
2) Open Source Database (Windows) in Read Only. Generate TRANSPORT.SQL, CONVERTSCRIPT.RMAN & Pfile.
3) Copy Source datafiles in temporary location on Target OS. Also copy above files.
4) Create dummy controlfile.
5) Startup nomount with Changed pfile
6) Mount database with Dummy Controlfile.
7) Run CONVERTSCRIPT.RMAN to convert actual datafiles from Windows Platform to Linux Platform.
8) Shutdown the instance and delele Dummy Controlfiles.
9) Edit TRANSPORT.SQL and do Appropriate Changes like redolog files, datafiles path...
Now my question is, can I add ?/rdbms/admin/catupgrd.sql in TRANSPORT.SQL script after Startup upgarade command so that Complete Upgradation to 11.2.0.2.0 would be done.
10) Then run TRANSPORT.SQL on Target System (11.2.0.2.0)
Tell me if more inputs are required from my side...

Manish

Adding online redo logs with standby database in place

Hi group,
I have decided to add one new member to my existing redo log groups and an additional redo log group to my primary database.
That change went ok without problems. I assumed that with standby_file_management=auto the equivalent online redo logs are created on the standby database. But this is not the case.
The documentation is unclear about this point and I did not find anything suitable on metalink. The docs suggest to cancel managed recovery on the standy, setting standby_file_management to MANUAL and then adding online logs, quote:
"To add an online redo log, use a SQL statement such as this:
SQL> ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE 'prmy3.log' SIZE 100K;"
This however - IMO - adds a new STANDBY redo log to the standby database, what I need is an ONLINE redo log.
Does anybody have some experience to share here?
Facts:
Solaris 8
Oracle 9.2.0.6
Thanks!
Martin

OK, for those who come across the same problem.
You need to create a new standby controlfile, copy it as well as any new online redo log from production to the standby environment.
Once the files are in place, start the standby as normal and open it read only to see if everything is ok:
startup nomount
alter database mount standby database;
alter database open read only
Only when there are no errors in your alert.log you are safe.

Standby Database not syncronized with primary.

DB: 10.2.0.4.0

My standby Database not syncronized with primary, because of space issue mrp process was stopped.
During that we added 4 datafile in primary database in that case how we can sync standby database?
There are no unamed files on standby database.

Standby database,Possible network disconnect with primary database

Hello
I have a database on linux with standby configured on different server with same os and database version.When i was about clone primary database through OEM,it stuck in the middle and popup for recovery. I restored and recover whole database. Then, the alert log on the standby database shows this error.
Possible network disconnect with primary database.
I checked standby databsase,listener is up & running. But archive files are getting into standby database.
What should i do now? Please anybody can put some light on this.
Thanks
Ariz

Is there anything in the primary alert log? Can you tnsping the standby instance from the primary server, and the primary instance from the standby server?

Standby Database with Recovery Manager

Logical standby database resides on another server. some archive log files are not synced with standby database
I want to recreate standby database with rman
Any step by step documentation ?

Before you recreate all and everything, try the troubleshoot hints in the document mentioned in the previous post.

Bounce the standby database

Hello,
I am using oracle10g with standby database. Here is the database version.
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bi
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
CORE 10.2.0.3.0 Production
TNS for Linux: Version 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.3.0 - Production
Now i want to increase the number of process in primary database. Primary needs downtime. But in this circumstances, should i bounce the standby?
Let me put all my questions here.
1. Should i bounce the standby at this scenario?
2. Here are the commands and sequence of steps to shutdown and start the database. Please correct me if i am wrong....
2a) shutdown the standby database first. (run this command in secondary)
connect / as sysdba
SQL>ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE CANCEL;
SQL>shutdown immediate
2b) shutdown the primary(run this command in primary)
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET PROCESS=999 SOPE=spfile;
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
2c) startup the primary
SQL> STARTUP
2d) Start the secondary database
connect / as sysdba
startup nomount
ALTER DATABASE MOUNT STANDBY DATABASE;
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;
3) After start the database, how do i ensure, primary is shipping the archivelog to secondary?
Any help is highly appreciated...

You can just mount
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;
+3) After start the database, how do i ensure, primary is shipping the archivelog to secondary?+
Check the alert log on the standby.
Instead you need not shut down the standby at all.

Active data guard standby database

Hello,
we have to choose which technology to use for maintain Oracle backup center synchronized with main center. This backup center should be read only, and data generated in main should be replicated into backup. So I would like to use Active Data Guard, but I have a possible issue with reading in backup center, because reading is not just select, but filling(inserting data) some temporary tables (from client side, and from procedures in database). Will Standby database in backup center allow this if Active Data Guard is used. We would go with Oracle 11gR2.
Also other suggestions on replication technologies (I know there are RAC, ADG, Oracle Streams, Golden Gate), or any document which would help us decide which of these technologies would suit our needs the best.
Thank You.

In 11.1 or later you can use feature "Snapshot Standby Databases" if this write on database is temporary (i.e you will not use the new data) and at backup time you not need use Snapshot Standby Database feature.
A snapshot standby database is a physical standby database that you temporarily convert into an updatable standby database. You can use snapshot standby databases as clones or test databases to validate new functionality and new releases, and when finished you then convert the database back into a physical standby. While running in the snapshot standby database role, it continues to receive and queue redo data so that data protection and the RPO are not sacrificed.
A snapshot standby database has the following characteristics:
* A snapshot standby database cannot be the target of a switchover or failover. A snapshot standby database must first be converted back into a physical standby database before performing a role transition to it.
* A snapshot standby database cannot be the only standby database in a Maximum Protection Data Guard configuration.
Note:
Flashback Database is used to convert a snapshot standby database back into a physical standby database. Any operation that cannot be reversed using Flashback Database technology will prevent a snapshot standby from being converted back to a physical standby.

Also other suggestions on replication technologies (I know there are RAC, ADG, Oracle Streams, Golden Gate), or any document which would help us decide which of these technologies would suit our needs the best.If you need "standby" database opened in read-write all time the best option is to use Golden Gate.

Connection to readonly standby database

Is it possible to connect to a readonly standby database with sql developer>
I am not having much luck at the moment.
regards
Alan

Hi Alan,
I have no experience with standby databases, but the same Basic type SQL Developer connection works just fine on a non-standby database whether it is open read write or read only.
Assuming someone with standby experience sees your question, you may want to give additional details about what you have tried in terms of your Connection Type and connect info. Are you able to connect to the standby using SQL*Plus?
Quickly glancing over some documentation on standby database, I see that there are logical and physical standby's, managed and non-managed, primary and standby with/without SQL*Net connections between them, etc, so possibly additional details on your specific configuration may be relevant.
Regards,
Gary

How to sync primary and standby database in 11GR2 on linux

Hi ,
How to sync primary and standby database in 11GR2 on linux . Both my primay and standby are 3 node cluster each.
Can you please suggest a good link and brief steps .
Thanks

Are you trying to setup a new standby or sync an existing standby database?
OK I see it
"standby is behind the primary"
So you have a gap.
I would check both alert logs for a cause. You might find something like this
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor.Look for ORA-00308 and ORA-27037 and ORA-16055.
There's no sense fixing the gap unless the cause is fixed too.
Also check out this post from a few days ago its dealing with similar issues.

Did you have a look at the dataguard docs,
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10700/standby.htm#i72073
Which has this mentioned quite clearly,
>
Oracle Data Guard is available only as a feature of Oracle Database Enterprise Edition. It is not available with Oracle Database Standard Edition.
Note:
It is possible to simulate a standby database environment with databases running Oracle Database Standard Edition. You can do this by manually transferring archived redo log files using an operating system copy utility or using custom scripts that periodically send archived redo log files from one database to the other. The consequence is that this configuration does not provide the ease-of-use, manageability, performance, and disaster-recovery capabilities available with Data Guard>
So if you want to have data guard, use Enterprise Edition.

Help with setting a 2nd Standby Database

Hi,
I have an active DataGuard 11gR2 with a physical standby actively running on Linux.
Now, I need to add a 2nd physical Standby database (for reads only) to this environment, can someone please point to a resource/document which discusses the steps which are involved?
Thanks much
-Sravan

Hello;
One option is to setup a Cascading Standby. I tested this last spring and I'm happy to share my setup notes.
www.visi.com/~mseberg/Data_Guard_Cascading_Standby_Setup_and_Test.pdf
Also worth noting if you have Active Data Guard you don't need a second Standby, ( license for active Data Guard required ).
Best Regards

For additional information see :
Data Guard Concepts and Administration
12.1.3 Configuring Both Physical and Logical Standby Databases ( Oracle document B14239-05 )
In this case you could use the Logical Standby as you "Reader" database.

Physical Standby Database Creation with RMAN

Hi,
I'm in 10g on Linux. I want to create a standby database on another Linux server. I did not find a clear procedure to create it in Oracle® Database Backup and Recovery Advanced User's Guide 10g Release 2 (10.2) Part Number B14191-02
and niether in Oracle® Data Guard Concepts and Administration 10g Release 2 (10.2) B14239-04
In the last one chapter 3 sends you to F appendix and F appendix says do nothing before having than all in chapter 3 :
In F.1.1 page F-2 it is said :
See Chapter 3 for a complete discussion of physical standby database preparation,including initialization parameter settings. You must perform all necessary preparation tasks described in these chapters before RMAN can successfully create the standby database files and mount the standby database.
Any way I'm looking for a procedure or clear article to create it.
Many thanks before.

Oracle manually standby database with standard edition

Hi, I want to have a plan for disaster. I'm triying with two virtual machines with oracle database 10g on suse linux. I follow these URLs
http://www.dbasupport.com/oracle/ora10g/manual_standby.shtml
http://oramdq.blogspot.com/2009/05/como-configurar-un-sistema-de-alta.html
and it look that work all right.
I know that with manually standby database we applied archived logs, and so, we don't propagate any physical changes to secondary database (standby), for example, if I create a new tablespace, or adding a new datafile to an existing tablespace, it don't work in the secondary database.
Anyone does know how is the better way to apply the physical changes??
Anyone have any scripts to do that?
Thanks in advance.

HI,
Add the STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT = AUTO to the primary parameter file, it will solve it.
