"Alter Database" command in Database Standby

Hi community.
I have the following situation:
I've ASE 15.7 CE SP121 in two enviroments: System Production and System Standby. The Standby is maintained with load of dump transaction generated in production every 10 minutes.
Now I need increase a database in data portion in 100GB. I know that I must make this in each enviroment (Production and Standby), also I know that I can execute alter database command while the database in the System Standby is offline.
The process that I make is:
Stop dump transaction in production.
Stop Load transaction in Standby.
Alter database "on" in Production. Result is Sucessfull.
Alter database "on" in Standby. Result is error:
In this step, I receipt the following error:
The database DBUSER is in the middle of a load sequence. Altering it will not let you load other transaction dumps in the dump-set. If you still prefer to do it please use OVERRIDE option.
In this situation I have that put online database and increase the size. Obiously, I can't load more dump transaction and I should generate a full dump database in production, load this dump in standby and load dump transations after to load of dump database (full).
I simulate my situation in a enviorement of test with pubs3 and then of load the last dump transaction, I can do alter database in my DB standby without problems and after of this process I continue load dump transaction.
I don't understand why receipt this error?
Any recomendation?
Thanks!
Cristian Lopez.

I can't recall trying to extend an offline database so what I'd probably do (short of waiting for a definitive answer from someone @ SAP/Sybase ... either here in the forum or from tech support) ...
1 - Assuming you have to perform a full database dump/load after issuing 'alter database', decide on a good time to perform the full database dump/load and then ...
2 - follow your steps (above) and then try restarting the log dump/load and ...
3a - if the log dump/load succeeds ... you've got nothing else to do
3b - if the log dump/load fails, then proceed with the full database dump/load

Log 'alter system ' commands

Hi
I am looking for a way to track alter system / alter database commands.
Database triggers are not logging them : I do have a database trigger for DDLs tracking that works great but alter system commands are not captured by it . also trigger 'alter alter on database ' - do not log alter system or alter database
Is there a way for me to force a command to appear in the alert log ?
Or any other way you can think of ?
thanks
Orna

Orna,
YOu can create a database level trigger to capture ALTER statement and insert them into a user defined table. This is just one example you can define trigger at schema level as well.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER usiuser.myaltertrg
   BEFORE ALTER
   ON DATABASE
DECLARE
   tmpvar   NUMBER;
BEGIN
   tmpvar   := 0;
-- your code to insert alter statement in user defined table.
EXCEPTION
   WHEN OTHERS
   THEN
      -- Consider logging the error and then re-raise
      RAISE;
END myaltertrg;Regards

Alter database recover to logical standby is hanging

Hi,
when I try to convert my physical standby to logical standby using
alter database recover to logical standby STANDBYL;
the command just hangs
I have seen the usual hit on this which is to create the Redo Dictionary on the Primary using
execute dbms_logstdby.build;
which I did but the alter database command still keeps hanging on my Standby
Any ideas,
thanks
Jim

Hello;
Does your Standby alert log have any lines like this:
RECOVER TO LOGICAL ...
If yes look for the message ( after this )
Starting datafile conversion
and post any errors or warnings you have.

Startup command starts database but alter database open read only gives error

Hi,
I'm having some strange behavior. I've 10.2.0.3 database on windows 2003.
The startup command starts database without any issues.
But if I try following it gives error.
startup mount (successful no errors)
alter database open read only; gives error that file Mnnnnnn is missing.
Why this is happening and how to fix it?
Thanks.

You really need to show us exactly what Oracle is telling you, using copy and paste, so we can have some clue. You can hide details like instance and host names if they show up.
I'm wondering if you had some messed up offline datafile in a tablespace, where Oracle handles it with startup, but gets upset when you try to open read-only. It's some bizarro sequence of events like: add a datafile to a tablespace, decide that was a mistake, alter it offline, then remove it from the OS without telling Oracle any more about it. I've come back from vacation to find scenarios like this, it winds up being a time-bomb trying to recreate a standby later. Or something like that, I could be unremembering some details.

Creation of Logical Standby Database Using RMAN ACTIVE DATABASE COMMAND

Hi All,
I am in confusion how to create logical standby database from primary database using rman active database command.
What i did:-
Create primary database on machine 1 on RHEL 5 with Oracle 11gR2
Create standby database on machine 2 on RHEL 5 With Oracle 11gR2 from primary using RMAN active database command
Trying to create logical standby database on machine 3 on RHEL 5 with Oracle 11gR2 using RMAN active database command from primary.
The point which confuse me is to start the logical standby in nomount mode on machine 3 with which pfile like i create the pfile for standby database do i need to create the pfile for logical standby db.
I done the creation of logical standby database by converting physical standby to logical standby database
I am following the below mentioned doc for the same:
Creating a physical and a logical standby database in a DR environment | Chen Guang&#039;s Blog
Kindly guide me how to work over the same or please provide me the steps of the same.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply
I already started the logical standby database with pfile in nomount mode. And successfully completed the duplication of database. by mentioning the DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT parameter.
But i am not able to receive the logs on the above mentioned blog i run the sql command to check the logs but getting "no rows selected"

ALTER DATABASE COMMAND ON OFFLINE SQL SERVER

My server is not ciming up as it doesnot have tempdb files on the drive correctly. I nned to use ALTER database command to rectify the files. How can I do this on offline sql server???

As Prashanth mentioned, use SQLCMD. Problem with SSMS is that the object explorer grabs the first and the only connection that is available in single user mode. However, if you still want to use SSMS (many are comfortable with GUI), right click the
SQL instance name and select "disconnect" and also close all other query windows and open File menu --> New --> "Query with Current Connection" menu item and this should now take the one and only available connection in single user
mode

Hello;
Script has to be run from auxiliary.
Great details, but what I don't see is how you connect in RMAN.
Example
Start RMAN
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target=sys/@recover2 auxiliary=sys/@reclone
Recovery Manager: Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production on Wed Feb 22 14:50:31 2012

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.

Pl do not post duplicates - Issue in configuring Standby Database from Active database in 11g by RMAN

Duplicate database command fails with RMAN-06023

Hello,
I am trying to test out the duplicate database command in RMAN and am running into some issues.
I did a backup of my test database, copied the backup files to a second server, and now I'm trying to run the duplicate command and I get RMAN-06023 errors for all of my datafiles.
I did crosschecks on my backupsets and they showed as available. They are in the same location on the new server, with the same permissions. There are no recent archived logs, as this is a very quiet environment.
My commands and output (edited slightly) were as follows:

Hi,
Where is you RMAN catalog? I think you forgot to connect to it.
To duplicate a database check that folowing applies:
1-the auxiliary instance is mounted
2-the listener for the auxiliary db is up
3-the backup pieces that RMAN is going to restore ARE AVAILABLE on the
secondary/auxilary server with SAME NAME the have on the primary server (you can use NFS to avoid the copy of the pieces from primary to auxuliary box)
Remember to be conected to both: target and auxiliary db.
I have extracted the folowing lines from an RMAN script I used to create an standby database with the DUPLICATE command (the RMAN catalog was in the primary db controlfile, and the command was run on the primary server:
$ rman target / nocatalog auxiliary sys/pwd@standbycard log=crCARD.log
RMAN> duplicate target database for standby nofilenamecheck dorecover;
I hope this helps

How to shift Manual Standby Database to Primary Database

Hi all,
My Database edition is Oracle 10G standard Edition and runing 24X7 and configure Manual Stand by Database. if I were changing some iniliazation parameter and datafiles.
What can I do ?
i) How to swift the Manual Stand by Database to Primary Database.
ii) What is the procedure by step by step information need.
Regards.....

If you're using a Manual Standby Database I assume you are using a pfile to apply the archived logs transported from the primary database created while creating the Manual Standard. at that time you should have kept the spfile in place too.
If you have done this, then you can simply open an SQL*Plus session connect as sysdba and issue a simple STARTUP command.
This will use the SPFILE by default and your database will be opened normally.
But if you don't have an SPFILE you can always create one, just specify the necessary control files (not the standby control file) in your pfile, remove unwanted parameters and create the spfile, and use the same step as above and issue a STARTUP.
But once you open your standby database normally you will not be able to switch back to standby mode, you have to recreate it again from a cold backup and create a new standby control file.
Regards,
Tony

Maxl load database command.

I am having an issue loading database using maxl commands. I am doing the following
1. Login
2. logout all sessions
3. disable connects (to make sure no users login)
4. unload database
5. load database
6. perform some action on the database
7. enable connects
8. logout
It worked fine for system 9 but fails @ step 5 with system 11.
Any clues.
thanks

Here is the script....
/*Login in Application and Database*/
login $1 $2 on $3;
/*Creating Spool file*/
spool stdout on to ....
/* Logoff all users from $6 application */
alter system logout session on application $6;
iferror 'FailResetDB';
/*Disable user connnects to $6 application*/
alter application $6 disable connects;
iferror 'FailResetDB';
/*Disable Commands to $6 application*/
alter application $6 disable commands;
iferror 'FailResetDB';
/*Enable Commands to $6 application*/
alter application $6 enable commands;
iferror 'FailResetDB';
/*Unload $6 Application*/
alter application $6 unload database $7;
iferror 'FailResetDB';
/*Load $6 Application*/
alter application $6 load database $7;
iferror 'FailResetDB';
/*Clear all data from $6 application*/
alter database $6.$7 reset data;
iferror 'FailResetDB';
/*Enable user connnects to $6 application*/
alter application $6 enable connects;
iferror 'FailResetDB';

Doubt in - recover database command

Hello,
I wanted to know the significance of - using backup controlfile
in the sql command:
recover database using backup controlfile until cancel
Some background info-
I am performing a system copy using Db backup-restore methodology.
I generated a new control file using -
1. alter database backup controlfile to trace;
2. Editing the file, changing SID and renaming it to control.sql
3. @control.sql
So how is - recover database using backup controlfile until cancel
different from - recover database until cancel
in this scenario?
Thanks.

This is the best explanation i had found earlier which is well written
If you were to recover the database with a current control file, Oralce will know the last SCN of the last checkpoint. So Oracle can use the information in the archived and online redo logs to apply recovery up to that SCN. This is called a "complete" recovery.
If you do not have the current control file, your option is to use a backup controlfile. Which means Oracle does not know the SCN to stop applying recovery. So you tell Oracle that you are using a "backup controlfile" and that you will tell it when to stop applying redo by replying "cancel." When Oracle starts recovery, it looks at the datafiles to know the last time a checkpoint was performed on the datafile. Oracle now knows to start applying recovery to the datafile for all SCNs after the SCN in the datafile header. Oracle rolls forward transactions. But Oracle does not know when to stop, and eventually, Oracle applies recovery in all of your archived redo logs. You can then tell Oracle to use the redo in the online redo logs. Oracle will ask you where to find more redo. At this point, you tell it to quit applying redo by replying CANCEL.
Hope this helps in explaining the difference

Failover from standby database to primary database

Hi,
Can anyone suggest me, How to do " Standby DataGuard database to primary database (dataguard)".
Kindly Give me steps.
Thanks,
Shweta

Hi
Follow these steps
Oracle switchover operation:
1.     Check and verify the role parameter on the v$parameters both primary and standby
On Primary
Log_archive_dest_1=”this is the local archive destination”
+Log_archive_dest_2=”This is the Service [TNS ENTRY]”+
Log_archive_dest_state_1=Enable
Log_archive_dest_state_2=Enable
Fal_server=”this should have the tns entry for the standby
Fal_Client=”this should have the tns entry for the primary
Standby_archive_dest=”This should have the Location where the archive located”
Standby_File_Management=AUTO
On Standby
Log_archive_dest_1=”this is the local archive destination”
+Log_archive_dest_2=”This is the Service [TNS ENTRY]”+
Log_archive_dest_state_1=Enable
Log_archive_dest_state_2=DEfer
Fal_server=”this should have the tns entry for the primary
Fal_Client=”this should have the tns entry for the standby
Standby_archive_dest=”This should have the Location where the archive located”
Standby_File_Management=AUTO
2.     Down all the applications connects to the database
3.     Shutdown both primary and standby databases
4.     For RAC Keep Only one primary and One standby up and all other nodes should be down
5.     Check the Primary database on Open mode and the Standby database on mount stage
6.     On Primary
SQL>select switchover_status from v$database;Sessions Active or To standby will be appearing on the result
SQL> alter database commit to switchover to standby with session shutdown;
SQL> shutdown Immediate;
SQL>startup nomount;
SQL>alter database mount standby database;
SQL>Alter system set log_Archive_dest_state_2=defer;7.     On Standby
SQL>select switchover_status from v$database;it is acceptable to have Sessions Active or To Primary
SQL>alter database commit to switchover to primary with session shutdown;
SQL>shutdown immediate;
SQL>Startup;
SQL.>Alter system set log_archive_dest_state_2=enable;8.     On Primary
start the managed recovery
SQL>Alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;9.     Check the log shipment is working from New Primary to New Standby Using
SQL>Alter system switch logfile; ---- On New Primary.check the alert log on both Primary and Standby for the log shipment and Media recovery.
10.     If the switch over fail issue the following statement on standby (ORACLE 9i)
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database finish skip standby logfile ┘
SQL> alter database commit to switchover to primary┘
SQL> shutdown immediate;
SQL> Startup;11.     If this don’t work please issue the below statement
SQL> alter database activate standby database skip standby logfile;12.     If the switch over fail issue the following statement on standby (ORACLE 10g and above)
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database finish force;
SQL> alter database commit to switchover to primary;
SQL> alter database open;
SQL> shutdown Immediate;
SQL> startup;13. Added the temp file to your temp tablespace
If you follow the steps (10,11 & 12 ) you have to recreate the standby again. those steps are actually fail over steps. Hope this will be helpful
Cheers
Kanchana
