How to create physical standby database without dataguard

Hi,
Can anyone please help me how to create Physical Standby Database without dataguard. As i am using Oracle 10.2.0.1 Standard Edition for production databases.
Please find the specifications of my server :
Database : Oracle 10.2.0.1(Standard Edition)
Server : Linux 4.0(32 bit machine)
As we know that Dataguard cannot be created in Standard Edition as we dont have that option in this edition. So please help me how to create the physical standby database.
Thanks in advance.

What happend?
Thks for advance !

Hi,
ORA-00264:no recovery required
Cause: An attempt was made to perform media recovery on files that do not // need any type of recovery.

9i Standby without dataguard

Hi all.
Oracle 9i ( SE )
I'm trying to figure out how to create a standby database without dataguard. I've read that its possible, but I can't find any documentation on exactly how to do it. From what I've gathered I should be able to
Create a duplicate database from primary backups
Put standby database into "some recovery mode" - this is the bit I'm stumped at
Copy archive logs from primary to standby, where they will magically be applied?
I need to migration lots of datafiles to new disks, and cannot afford the downtime to just move them, so I'm thinking the best way to do it is to create a standby and keep it as close to synced to the primary as possible, then shutdown primary, apply file logs, point primary to the new datafile location..
Can anyone either point me to a good article on doing standby with dataguard, or if there is a better way to move large ( move procedure will take about 4-5 hours) tablespaces/databases with minimum downtime.
Thanks.

Hrmm, maybe? so is "Data Guard" by itself available for SE?
When I startup the database it reports
"Oracle Data Guard is not available in this edition of Oracle."
I'll go poke around that document too.
btw. the document I read which suggests this is possible is, http://www.dba-oracle.com/oracle_tips_failover.htm
Thanks

i am create stand by database on my some host ( mean primary database already running on some machine.)/
i am set this two parameter like it is right or wrong plz check it.
db_file_name_convert = 'd:\oracle\product\10.1.0\oradata\db01\','c:\oracle\sdydb\';

Creating physical standby database on same machine with dataguard

hi every one
i m new in oracle databases,
i read documentation to create physical standby databases,
now i install virtual machine (vmware) on my system,
i install windows xp on this vm and oracle 9i
now i want to create standby database on the same machine in some other drive configured with datagurd
virtual machine
OS windows xp
database oracle 9i
plz reply me how i do this
explain clearly step by step.
plz reply me in detail

When you need to have the standby database on the same server as the master, use lock_name_space in the init.ora.
This parameter permits this to occur without having to worry about changing the db_name.

Creating a Stand By DataBase for Production

Hi,
One more question How to do create a Standy Database for the Production
Database.
Can one tell the procedure to create a Standy By database ??
Thanks,
Pavan Kumar

That's documented in the Data Guard Concepts and Administration manual. Chapters 3 & 4 cover creating physical and logical standby databases.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/partpage1.htm
Of course, since you didn't mention what version of Oracle you're using, I picked the 10.2 documentation to link to. You can find other manuals online at http://tahiti.oracle.com if you're using a different version.

Problem creating physical Standby database with RMAN

Hi All
I am trying to learn oracle dataguard and as part of the process learning creating standby database.
Platform : Sun-Fire-V250 Sparc, Solaris 10
Database Version - Oracle 11R2
I am creating standby database on same server, so directory structure is different.
Following the instructions on Oracle site I managed to create a functional physical standby database. But I am not able to create standby database using RMAN. These are the steps that I followed-
1.Set up all necessary parameters on primary database as done while creating physical standby database manually, eg setting force logging, creating standby logs etc.
2.Edited parameter file on primary database as done while creating manual pysical standby database creation. Some of the changes done are-
On Primary Database:
*.FAL_CLIENT='orcl11020' #Primary database unique name
*.FAL_SERVER='stdby_11' #Standby database unique name
db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020'
log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem'
standby_file_management=auto
*.log_archive_config='DG_CONFIG=(orcl11020,stdby_11)'
*.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11020/archivelog
VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=orcl11020'
*.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=stdby_11 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_1='ENABLE'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2='ENABLE'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT='%t_%s_%r.arc'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_MAX_PROCESSES=30
Copied same pfile for standby database and modified following-
*.control_files='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl','/<dir>/fra_stdby/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl'
*.db_name='orcl1102'
*.db_unique_name='stdby_11'
*.FAL_CLIENT='stdby_11'
*.FAL_SERVER='orcl11020'
db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11'
log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem'
standby_file_management=auto
*.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/fra_stdby/STDBY_11/archivelog
VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
*.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=orcl11020 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE)
db_unique_name=orcl11020'
3. Add relevant information in tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files and then restart listener.
3. Created password file with same credential as primary database.
4.Up-to-date RMAN backup of primary database available.
5.Create standby controlfile with rman
While primary database s open (I tried with primary database in mount mode as well)-
$>rman catalog rman/paswd@rman target /
RMAN> BACKUP CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY;
6. Open a new terminal and startup standby database in nomount mode using parameter file created -
$>ORACLE_SID=stdby_11
$>export ORACLE_SID
$>sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL>STARTUP NOMOUNT pfile='<location/initfilename.ora'
SQL>quit
$> rman AUXILIARY / target sys/passwd@orcl11020 catalog rman/passwd@rman
RMAN>DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY DORECOVER;
RMAN finishes without error but archive logs are not being tranported. Looking at the log, following caught my eye-
Error 1017 received logging on to the standby
Check that the primary and standby are using a password file
and remote_login_passwordfile is set to SHARED or EXCLUSIVE,
and that the SYS password is same in the password files.
returning error ORA-16191
FAL[client, ARC2]: Error 16191 connecting to orcl11020 for fetching gap sequence
Errors in file /<>dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:
ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
Errors in file /<dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:
ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
So on both primary and standby I confirmed
SQL> show parameter remote_login_passwordfile
NAME TYPE VALUE
remote_login_passwordfile string EXCLUSIVE
To make double sure that password files are same, I shutdown both databases, delete password files and recreated with same credentials.
Password files are called - orapworcl11020 and orapwstdby_11
Can someone guide me where thisngs are going wrong here please.

Not sure if I understood it clearly.
SELECT * FROM V$ARCHIVE_GAP;
returns no rows so there is no gap.
But could you please explain me the result of the previous query. To catch up again, on standby when I check
SELECT SEQUENCE#,APPLIED FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG
SEQUENCE# APPLIED
75 NO
74 NO
76 NO
77 NO
I understand that though archive files have been copied across but they are not applied yet.
On primary when I give your query -
SELECT name as STANDBY,SEQUENCE#,applied, completion_time
2 FROM v$archived_log
3 where dest_id=2
4 and sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80;
I get -
STANDBY SEQUENCE# APPLIED COMPLETIO
stdby_11 74 YES 28-JUN-11
stdby_11 75 YES 28-JUN-11
stdby_11 76 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 77 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 78 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 79 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 80 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 75 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 74 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 76 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 77 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 78 NO 07-JUL-11
I have intentionally given
sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80
because I know in the current incarnaion of the database, max sequence is 78.
So my understanding is, the rows between 28-29 June are from previous incarnation, correct me if I am wrong
Archive files of the current incarnation, since I successfully created standby database are shipped but yet to be applied - am I right?
Then my final question is, when will these archives be applied to standby database?
I am sorry to ask too many questions but I am just trying to understand how it all works.
Thanks for your help again

Test physical standby database in dataguard

Hi all,
I had a successfull dataguard implementation for oracle 9r2.
Primary and standby databases are on different nodes, logs from primay are shipping and applying to physical standby database successfully.
As these database are for oracle 11i ebs, so for testing dataguard status i had created a table manually having columns date and remarks. Periodically i insert few records in this table in primary database and then chek this tabel in standby database (by opening in read only mode).
Now i want to test physical standby database with applications tier but don't want to disturb origional primary database.
as these are the normal switchover steps
1) at primary db
ALTER DATABASE COMMIT TO SWITCHOVER TO PHYSICAL STANDBY WITH SESSION SHUTDOWN;
2) at standby
ALTER DATABASE COMMIT TO SWITCHOVER TO PRIMARY;
3) at primary, now this will be the stand by database
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP MOUNT;
4) at standby, now this will be the primary database
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP
My concern is if i skip step 1 and 3 and only execute step 2 and 4, will that be applicable for my requirement, or there is some other way to achieve this goal.
Regards,
Ken

To avoid touching the primary production DB, you may try to use the following command on your standby database side:
alter database activate standby database;
This will turn your standby database to primary database, however the log will be reset and this means you will need to rebuild your DR.
Another way is to use flash back feature on your standby database, activate it and revert back to the flashback point when the DR testing is done.

Standby without DataGuard

Hi,
I've successfully created a standby for a single node Primary Database in 10g on Redhat Enterprise Linux 4.0 Update 4.0. I'm planning to add one more standby site to the same primary database. Now, my question is...
1. Is it possible to setup more than one standby without the help of DataGuard.
2. If possible, please guide me how to do it(step-by-step).
Thanks in advance...
Mahesh

If you've already configured one Standby without DataGuard, you'd use the same method for the second standby.
Since we do not know your scripts and how you are propagating archive logs and putting the standby in recovery mode -- all of which would be "custom" methods in the absence of DataGuard -- we can't really advice you . Because it is difficult to advice on extensions to a customisation without looking at a customisation.
Many sites have implemented a scripted Standby without DataGuard using methods available since Oracle7. However, the frequency and method of archivelog propagation and how and when the standby database "wakes up" to apply the archivelogs etc are all site specific.
Let's say that you DO use the ARCH process on the primary database to propagate archivelogs to the Standby destination site. Since Oracle 10g allows multiple log_archive_dest_n sites, you can just add one more site and have the archivelogs propagate to the additonal site. However, there are other parameters (eg MANDATORY/OPTIONAL, REOPEN, DELAY etc) that you would set based on your requirements.
The two standby instances would be independent {unaware} of each other -- you can script delays between the archivelogs so that the two standby aren't always at the same level (this allows "fallback" to an "older version of the database" when necessary). You could have one standby stop recovery and open read only for some time.
Short Answer : Yes, it is possible to have multiple "standby"s without DataGuard.
Correct Answer : How you do it depends on how you want to extend your current implementation.

Can we run application services when physical stand by database is in read

can we run application services when physical stand by database is in read only mode
i Want to up the EBS application services and check login when phyiscal standby database is in read only mode.
Is it possible? for checking dataguard database application as well.

but i just want to know that can i start EBS application services and nagivate the application.Without distrubing my primary database and application.You should not do as the moment you open the standby database it becomes invalid.
Thanks,

Creaton of Standby database and dataguard broker

Hi Experts,
I am using Linux with Oracle version 11gR2. We have planned to create a physical standby database and also configure dataguard broker for the standby database.
Also, I've read the documents that active dataguard is a feature on 11g. Is it not possible on 10g ?
Can someone please provide me the steps to create the standby database and configure the dataguard broker.

Hello;
A simple Data Broker setup would be :
On both Primary and Standby sites, change the initialization parameter in the spfile to enable the Data guard broker.
SQL> Alter system set dg_broker_start=True scope=both;
On the PRIMARY site, open the ‘cmd’ and start Command Line Interface (CLI) of the Dataguard Broker (DGMGRL).
/home/oracle:PRIMARY >dgmgrl
DGMGRL for Linux: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
DGMGRL> connect sys/password@PRIMARY
Create broker configuration.
DGMGRL> create configuration ‘broker1’ as
primary database is 'PRIMARY'
connect identifier is primary;Configuration "?broker1?" created with primary database "PRIMARY"
DGMGRL>
(‘primary’ in Connect identifier is the service name through which the broker is connected to the PRIMARY database)
Add Standby Database to the above configuration.
DGMGRL> add database 'standby' as
connect identifier is 'STANDBY'
maintained as physical;
Database "standby" added
(‘to_standby’ in Connect identifier is the service name through which the broker is connected to the STANDBY database)
Now the configuration has been set up but it is still disabled. You can view the configuration by executing:
DGMGRL> show configuration
The next step is to ENABLE the configuration ‘broker1’.
DGMGRL> enable configuration;
Enabled.
Again view the configuration.
DGMGRL> show configuration
Configuration - ?broker1?
Protection Mode: MaxPerformance
Databases:
PRIMARY - Primary database
standby - Physical standby database
Fast-Start Failover: DISABLED
Configuration Status:
SUCCESSIn my humble opinion its a good idea to setup Data Guard without Broker and get the "feel" of it first.
Remember, once you setup Broker, you cannot use SQL to change your Data Guard setup.
Best Regards

Do I have to install SharePoint Foundation 2013 via a script in order to name my content databases without the GUID references?

Hi,
I want to install SharePoint Foundation 2013 on a standalone server with SQL Express but I want to be able to name the content databases without their GUID references. Will I have to use an install script (AutoSPInstaller perhaps?) to achieve this?
Thanks.

You can't do a standalone install if you want the alias (also if you plan to move the databases in the future)
You'll need to create the alias before you create the farm with the Configuration wizard or PowerShell so you can specify the alias. Whether you create the alias before or after installing SQL Express doesn't matter as long as it points to the instance.
