Can standby database configured on VMWare server or not?

HI all,
Is it possible that our primary server is not on vmware server but standby server can be configured on VMWare server?
AFAIK, configuration of both the server should be same.
If our Primary server is not on Vmware server but standby database configured on Vmware server, Will it work or not.
Pls suggest me.....
And another thing is that Is it necessary to have a dedicated connection b/w primary and standby server for RFS process.
pls suggest me....

If our Primary server is not on Vmware server but standby database configured on Vmware server, Will it work or not.Logically speaking, it should not matter but YMMV.
And another thing is that Is it necessary to have a dedicated connection b/w primary and standby server for RFS process.what is RFS process? Could you elaborate?

Standby Database Configuration with LGWR and ASYNC

Hi,
I am running a standby database configuration on a 100MBit LAN
with the following set-up:
log_archive_dest_2='service=standby mandatory reopen=300 lgwr
async=2000'
The system is handling a lot of very small transactions, not
involving large amounts of data.
My questions are:
- What are the potential problems in using a small ASYNC buffer
like the one above?
- Does a larger ASYNC buffer influence the latency in copying
changes from the production database to the standby database -
will it buffer more changes before sending them to the standby
database?

Murlib,
I have few more doubt-
Our requirement is to configure a Standby( Physical-MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE
mode) in a place, which is 600 KM away from our primary destination.
Currently our LAN network traffic rate is 100 Mbps. but this traffic is
virtually reduced to 1Mbps out side our LAN.
Our Production Database is 24X7 and Its generating 17 GB Archive files every
day.
Since the net work traffic is slow i think, it will create some log gaps,and
also we couldn't do a point in time recovery.
We are configuring a Standby, here inside our LAN in Managed Recovery Mode
for recovery purpose and will keep a Standby there in remote place for
Reports.
and it will be recover it in every morning.If iam following this procedure,
my
log_archive_dest_2 ='service=stby ARCH NOAFFIRM' ( which is the standby here
inside our LAN and should be in MANAGED RECOVERY mode)
and i need to configure the parameters for standby in my remote location.So
my doubt is-
Shall i need to configure "log_archive_dest_n" in the parameterlist of my
Primary for that remote Standby ?
I think for manual recovery we can aviod that.But we need to eonnect it
thrrough Oracle Net
Can you please tell me the essential PRIMARY parameter list entries for this
kind of remote standby , recovering in a manual mode ?
i think the following parameter should be there -
FAL_SERVER
FAL_CLIENT
DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT
LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT
STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT=AUTO
STANDBY_ARCHIVE_DEST
Thanks and Regards,
Raj

How will you find out no of standby databases configured for primary database from OS level

How can find the number of standby databases configured for primary database from os level

Check the alert log.
The Alert log will always have Data Guard messages in it.
Example
cd /u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/primary/PRIMARY/trace
tail -1700 alert_PRIMARY.log | more
Wed Nov 13 13:35:26 2013
ARC7: Standby redo logfile selected for thread 1 sequence 1164 for destination LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2
LNS: Standby redo logfile selected for thread 1 sequence 1165 for destination LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2
If you don't see messages like this it's probably not a Data Guard system.
Or search it for :
System parameters with non-default values:
Which on Data Guard system will show things like:
log_archive_dest_1 = "LOCATION=USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) DB_UNIQUE_NAME=PRIMARY"
log_archive_dest_2 = "SERVICE=STANDBY LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) DB_UNIQUE_NAME=STANDBY"
log_archive_dest_state_1 = "ENABLE"
log_archive_dest_state_2 = "ENABLE"
fal_server = "STANDBY"

Configuring Standby database.....but not able to finish it

Friends,
DB: 10.2.0.4
OS: RHEL 4.8
I have done all the preliminary steps in the primary database like...
force logging
archivelog
creating standy redo loo.
etc....as per the documentation....
my problem is what about the standby system not db...i mean the node or os....
i have installed rhel 4.8 and the db 10.2.0.4 ...
In the standby os....am i have to create a db or only the oracle installation is enough....?
anyway...i have to copy all the datafiles and controlfile and pfile from primary os...
thanks

thanksIf you just install OS, it wont be enough, you should have control files, data files, standby redo log files.
Then only it can communicated.

SCN can be differ in standby and it can be behind to primary based on the backup you have restored. Of course by performing recovery you can synchronize standby with primary database. You can use incremental backups for standby using link http://www.oracle-ckpt.com/rman-incremental-backups-to-roll-forward-a-physical-standby-database-2/

How to remove logical standby database configuration cleanly

Hello,
We are on RHL with 11.2.0.3 DB version. Due to various unknown reasons we would like to recreate logical standby database and for that purpose I would like to cleanly remove/uninstall/drop LOGICAL STANDBY DATABASE from the DATA GUARD configuration we have.
The DG setup already has 1 PHYSICAL STANDBY DATABASE which is working fine. PRIM,PHYSICAL, and LOGICAL all are on different HOSTS. Could you please guide or suggest us exact MOS Doc id regarding this? I have found one MOS Doc id which is close enough but its steps include removing dg configuration completely which I don't want. Only Logical Standby database needs to be remove cleanly so that it can be installed again properly.
We are using GRID CONTROL and DATA GUARD BROKER.
Bundle of thanks in advance.
Best Regards

Hello;
I would review this Oracle note:

Basic standby database configuration in Oracle10g standard edition

Have anyone successfully implemented the technology in Oracle8i and earlier known as "Basic standby database" in Oracle10g SE? From the information, that I've been able to gather, this technology still exists in Oracle9i and later, along with Oracle Data Guard.
I'm not interested in the complete Data Guard environment - only the standby database feature as mentioned above. Basci
I've tried the documentation regarding the configuration of Data Guard (in lack off precise documentation on this technology) - but it's very confusing what's possible on SE an EE editions.
I've followed all the guidelines, enabled archive logging on primary database, created standby control file, copied the primary database files, created the pfile from the primary database - and then used this as the source for the spfile on the standby database.
I can then mount the standby database and start the recovery process with the following command:
alter database recover standby database disconnect;
The database is altered but no archive is applied (I've manually copied the archive logs from the primary). I've configured the standby_archive_dest - but the status for the MRP0 process keeps saying: WAITING_FOR_LOG
It seems like the "automatic" recovery mode doesn't work on SE. My conclusion is that you'll have to do everything manually - which means that I've have run the recover command manually - everytime I want to apply the archive logs from the primary.
Does anyone have a complete how-to-guide on this issue or have tried implementing in a real solution?

Hi,
>>The database is altered but no archive is applied (I've manually copied the archive logs from the primary). I've configured the standby_archive_dest - but the status for the MRP0 process keeps saying: WAITING_FOR_LOG
because ur using standard edition and in this edition the archivelog will not automatically move to standby from primary database.so u have to automatically transfer and apply it.
Thanks

Standby database configuration

I implemented standby database
Steps: -
Closed database Backup primary database
Open primary database in mount stage
Create standby control file
shutdown the primary database
mount the standby db
recover it through archive logs
But after this when i open standby database in read only mode it gives me error
backup database requires recovery
file 5 was not restored from a sufficiently old backup
data file 5: 'E:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\TEST\Data01.dbf'
I do not know wahts problem. Please help me to identify problem. I am using oracle10g.
Thanks

Steps: -
Closed database Backup primary database
Open primary database in mount stage
Create standby control file
shutdown the primary database
and now you should copy datafile to standby location( when you copy datafile?) and then you startup primary database , aplay all archivelog and then tray open standby database in red only mode
mount the standby db
recover it through archive logs

i need ur help,we hav online site .Please don't use these juvenile abbreviations. It's impolite when you're asking for assistance not to make the effort to spell out all of the words. Moreover in a forum with an international readership the use of standard English will reduce the possibility of confusion.
I presume that your file upload is being placed in a different directory from that which you were expecting. I would suggest logging all paths (specifically filename) to see if this is an unexpected value.
Please explain further what you mean by "local" - is this a stand-alone application, or merely running a copy of the server on your local machine and doing the transfer (via the browser) to that? Are there any other differences such as the browser used?

VMware server Console -- not the web based access

Dear All,
I want to install vmware server console to do Oracle RAC practice, So kindly let me know from where can I get the exe file to install it.
FYI , I installed Vmware server version2.0.2 but it's ( Web access infrastructure ) , and I don't want this version , I need the other one which it's an application not the web based.

BI Publisher configured with BI Server Security not working for the admins.

Hello Everyone,
I have configured the BI publisher to work with the BI server security. Everything is working well with the exception that all users part of the BI Server "Administrators" group are unable to login and get the following error message (message displayed below). If a user is removed from the "Administrators" group then they are able to access the BI Publisher. As indicated everything else is working for exemple all users part of the 'XMLP_Admin' group all have access to the "ADMIN" tab in BI Publisher. The issue seems to be limited to the users part of the BI Server "Administrators" group.
- Has anyone else ever had this issue?
- Is this a normal behaviour of BI Publisher?
- Or the security groups for the BI Server and BI Publisher conflicting?
Thanks in advance for everyone's help.
Best regards,
FBELL

Thanks Madan for your help.
The group XMLP_Admin was already created and working. The conflict was with security groups outside BI Publisher. What I ended up doing was recreating the principals.xml and security.xml files and rsetting the roles and permissions. Surprisingly that fixed my problem.

Looking to use DG Broker to create new standby database

Hello,
I'm looking for a good document that can help me to create another standby database on a new server.
I'm running Oracle 11.2 EE on Solaris 10.
We already have one standby database, but now, I want to create another standby database on another server, which ultimately I will make primary and then replace and destroy our current primary/standby databases.
Also, just for the heck of it, I tried to look in our DB Console, and the "Add standby database" is grey'd out.
Is this because I am only using DB Console, and not Grid?
But if that were the case, why would the option even be in DB Console, or perhaps is there a lmiitation to the number of standby databases you can manage with DB Console?

1) Do not confuse Data Guard Broker and Enterprise Manager: DG Broker is mainly a background process (DMON) that can be controlled by EM or with DGMGRL on the command line
2) Only the Grid Control flavor of EM can manage Data Guard Configurations - regardless of the number of Primary or Standby Databases
3) DGMGRL cannot create a new Standby Database - Grid Control can
Kind regards

Dgmgr - physical standby database

Hi,
We are having Oracle 10g R2 (latest patch) . We have created a primary - physical standby database configuration. While the show database verbose 'dbname' in dgmgrl shows "success" for standby , it flags the following error for the primary
Warning: ORA-16801: redo transport-related property is inconsistent with database setting
Can this be ignored safely ? If not how to eliminate this.
Also brief me safest way to switch over between primary and standby databases.
Thanks.

This warning occurs when you mix manual configuration and dataguard broker, use only one method,not both:
Oracle Error :: ORA-16801
redo transport-related property is inconsistent with database setting
Cause
The values of one or more redo transport-related configuration properties were inconsistent with database in-memory settings or server parameter file settings. This may happen by altering initialization parameters directly instead of altering property values using Data Guard broker.
Action
Query property the InconsistentLogXptProps on the primary database or check the Data Guard broker log to find which properties are set inconsistently. Reset these properties to make them consistent with the database settings. Alternatively, enable the database or the entire configuration to allow the configuration property settings to be propagated to to the initialization parameters.

Standby database doubts

Hi All,
I have some doubts in Oracle Standby database configuration and log transfer and redo apply.
I have read the below document.
Oracle® Data Guard Concepts and Administration
Now my doubts are *(in Physical standby database with Maximum performance mode)*
1. When configuring the standby database we are creating standby redologs in primary database,Is this standby redologs are used only when the role transition happens or for anyother purpose?
2.The archivelogs are shipped from primary to standby and the archivelogs are applied to the standby database by doing the normal media recovery.Now, how and when the data is written in the standby database redologfiles,so that when we enable the real time apply it uses the standby database redologfile to apply the data without delay?
3.(if the second point is true)In the standby database will it generate the Archivelogfiles from the redo applied, apart from the primary archivelogs which are transfered?
Please Advice..
TIA,

1. When configuring the standby database we are creating standby redologs in primary database,Is this standby redologs are used only when the role transition happens or for anyother purpose?It is not for role transition.
A standby redo log is required for the maximum protection and maximum availability modes and the LGWR ASYNC transport mode is recommended for all databases.
You can recover more data than only applying archive logs in case of failure.
SRLs' are a must for real time apply.
2.The archivelogs are shipped from primary to standby and the archivelogs are applied to the standby database by doing the normal media recovery.Now, how and when the data is written in the standby database redologfiles,so that when we enable the real time apply it uses the standby database redologfile to apply the data without delay?The data is directly written from production to SRL of standby database using lgwr process(with the help of RFS), that is why it real time. Not waiting for a log switch. See the [diagram.|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/log_apply.htm#i1021537]
3.(if the second point is true)In the standby database will it generate the Archivelogfiles from the redo applied, apart from the primary archivelogs which are transfered?No. Only standby redo log will generate archived logs.
Regards,
S.K.
