Creating Physical Standby on AIX Server!!

I searched Oracle docs and other related sites, i didn't find any specific document on this subject. I wonder if same procedure, which is applicable for Windows, is also applicable and can be followed for AIX Systems?!!!
Any help on this??
Thanks

See http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/standby.htm#i72073
Personally I've never used such a configuration with Standard Edition, so I can't say so much...
The following is from another Oracle article :
In Standard Edition, it is possible to simulate a physical standby database environment.
You can manually transfer the archived logs to Standby server. (This can be scripted
for automation). Once the archived redo logs are available on Standby, they can be applied
using standard recover command.

Dear user13295317,
Here is the error explanation;
Oracle Error :: TNS-12533
TNS:illegal ADDRESS parameters
Cause
An illegal set of protocol adapter parameters was specified.
In some cases, this error is returned when a connection cannot be made to the protocol transport.
Action
Verify that the destination can be reached using the specified protocol.
Check the parameters within the ADDRESS section of TNSNAMES.ORA.
Legal ADDRESS parameter formats may be found in the Oracle operating system specific documentation for your platform.
Protocols that resolve names at the transport layer (such as DECnet object names) are vulnerable to this error if not properly configured or names are misspelled.Hope That Helps.

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

Problem While Creating Physical Standby Using RMAN

Hi Guru's
May be this incidence you all face while creating physical standby DB. I try to create Physical standby database Using RMAN Duplicate Command from one server
(pri machine) to Standby Machine.
The steps i followed to create the above are as follows:
Step 1:- Enable Forced Logging
SQL> ALTER DATABASE FORCE LOGGING;
Step 2:- Configure a Standby Redo Log
SQL> ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE GROUP 10
2> ('/oracle/dbs/log1c.rdo','/oracle/dbs/log2c.rdo') SIZE 500M;
Step 3:- Set Primary Database Initialization Parameters
SQL> create pfile='?/dbs/pfileorcl.ora' from spfile;
Edit the pfile to add the standby parameters, here shown:
db_unique_name='orcl'
LOG_ARCHIVE_CONFIG='DG_CONFIG=(orcl,orcldr)'
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2='SERVICE=orcldr LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) DB_UNIQUE_NAME=orcldr'
*.fal_server=orcldr
*.fal_client=orcl
*.standby_file_management=auto
Step 4:- Enable Archiving
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE ARCHIVELOG;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
Step 5:- Setup tnsnames for standby database
This should be done on primary database by altering tnsnames.ora or using NetCA command, and create it by the name orcldr
orcldr =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = standby-svr)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcldr)
Step 6:- Backup database and copy it to standby
This backup script should be run on primary and copied to standby on the same mount point, running this scripts using RMAN, all files under /rman_backup should be copied to /rman_backup on standby server.
$rman target /
RMAN> run
allocate channel c1 type disk;
allocate channel c2 type disk;
backup database format '/rman_backup/%U';
backup archivelog all format '/rman_backup /%U';
backup current controlfile for standby format '/rman_backup/%U';
Step 7:- Standby Database Steps
Installing Oracle Software
This should be same release and patchset with exactly same ORACLE_HOME mount point.
Setting Up listener
Create and start a listener on standby database using NetCA, or creating listener.ora in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = standby-svr)(PORT = 1521))
Step 8:- Set Standby Database Initialization Parameters
Copying the pfile created in primary database and renames it to initorcldr.ora, and changes these parameters:
db_unique_name='orcldr'
LOG_ARCHIVE_CONFIG='DG_CONFIG=(orcldr,orcl)'
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2='SERVICE=orcl LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) DB_UNIQUE_NAME=orcl'
*.fal_server=orcl
*.fal_client=orcldr
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2='ENABLE'
Step 9:- Setup tnsnames for primary database
This should be done on standby database by altering tnsnames.ora or using NetCA command, and create it by the name orcl
orcl =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = primary-svr)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
Step 10:- Copy a Password File
A password file must be created on the Primary and copied over to the Standby site. The sys password must be identical on both sites. Copy orapworcl to $ORACLE_HOME/dbs and rename file to orapworcldr
Step 11:- Create mount points for Oracle
Mount point should be created on standby server with the same convention used in primary, this includes the location for controlfiles, redo logs, datafiles, archive log destination and alert logs.
$ mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/
$ mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area/
$ mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/admin/orcl/adump
$ mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/admin/orcl/bdump
$ mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/admin/orcl/cdump
$ mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/admin/orcl/udump
Step 12:- Use RMAN to restore backup and setup standby
Connect to RMAN and execute the following command to create standby database, this should be performed on standby server after copying backup and setting tnsnames.
$ export ORACLE_SID=orcldr
$ rman target sys/tiger@orcl auxiliary sys/tiger@orcldr
RMAN> duplicate target database for standby dorecover;
Here i am getting problem as :
While trying to connect to traget database and auxiliary database i notice that when RMAN is connect to both databases it shows
orcl ( DBID xyz)
orcl (not mounted)
Here in my view the second database must be standby database name or auxiiary db name is standby db name which in my case is orcldr
after this issue i am facing the second issues as :
in command
duplicate target database for standby dorecover;
After modifying the command to
RMAN> duplicate target database to "standby";
rman-05520 database name mismatch
Can u please let me know where i am mistaking

ok for pri:
db_name=orcl
db_unique_name=orcl
for standby:
db_name=orcl
db_unique_name=sbyorcl ( i change orcldr to sbyorcl later)for new testing
but now what i am getting on

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 :

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.

Creating physical standby databases with DG Broker & OEM

Hi guys,
I manage 8i, 9i & 10g databases through OEM 10.2.0.2.
Today, I would like to create physical standby db for the most important applications. Because I'm a lazy guy, I'd like to do it the easiest way, with GUI and wizzards provided by OEM.
1. Do you know any tutorial on the Internet that would help to do it easily ? My only source up to now is the official DB broker documentation (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14230/toc.htm), which is 300 pages long like every Oracle doc. I'd appreciate any tutorial that could lead me straight to the essential. I've heard that is not so tricky to create a physical standby db
2. Is the procedure really different to create (and then manage) a physical standby database on Oracle 8i, 9i and 10g ? Is it possible to do it through DB Broker and OEM for every version ?
thank you for your help
Antoine

Antionio,
Oracle Documentation is the best source of configuring any Oracle component.
But, If you do not want to read the entire doc, and want to configure Dataguard Broker (without OEM), then here is the Link.

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.

AIX 5.2 : how to pass password value while creating a user on AIX server

Hi ,
Test connection is successful with AIX server , I can successfully create a user on AIX server, with defualt password.
I am not passing the any password value still some default value is being populated for the user...
In AIX while creating the user , use get force to set the password...
But while configuring the schema for AIX adapter ...if password attribute is given then it will give the error
as invalid attribute...while creating a user if password value pass...
how to set the password for the user..what attribute need to set for the password .
thanks ..

The default password might be the IdM account password of the user you are trying to provision. You don;t need to keep password in the resource schema. Just set password.password and password.confirmPassword and select AIX resource for password reset. Check the workflow-form-views document for more information on password view.

Hello;
So this is what I would do :
Backup Primary ( change to your directory as need )
RMAN RUN {
allocate channel d1 type disk;
backup format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/df_t%t_s%s_p%p' database;
sql 'alter system archive log current';
backup format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/al_t%t_s%s_p%p' archivelog all;
backup current controlfile for standby format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/sb_t%t_s%s_p%p';
release channel d1;
}Move the backup and duplicate like this :
rman target sys/password@PRIMARY auxiliary /
RMAN> run {
allocate channel C1 device type disk;
allocate auxiliary channel C2 device type disk;
duplicate target database for standby nofilenamecheck;
}For complete details of this method see :

NOTE: Please refer to the RMAN documentation for procedures
describing how to manually resolve OMF datafile pathnames"
For instance, the path for the logfile name in "ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE 'srl5.f' SIZE 52428800" may need to be changed manually. It is advisable to check the mentioned documentation.

ORA-01103: database name 'WMSTDBY' in control file is not 'WMTEST'
My Primary Sid is WMSTDBY
My Standby SId is WMTEST.
Please help in this regard.

You cannot change the DB_NAME of the standby. It has to be the same as the Primary. You can change (and should) the INSTANCE_NAME (SID) and the DB_UNIQUE_NAME parameters to WMTEST.

Creating physical standby database from another physical standby database

hi,
We have one production database and one physical standby of the production. Now we have situation where we need to create one database from either production or from standby. As production is loaded we can not do it using active database option. Now we have the only option to copy the database from standby.
As of now we open the standby and copy it using rman duplicate database and again we put it back to standby mode.
Is it possible to create standby database from standby database only?
Oracle version : 11.1.0.7.0
I have seen procedure allowing to do the same in version 11.2.0.3. I have tried searching for the difference but didn't find when this feature was introduced.
Thanks,
Ketul Patel

Hello;
Active duplicate should work when connected to Standby as source Database. However there's a bug 11715084 which is not fixed until version 11.2.0.4.
If patch 11715084 is available for your version it may work, but all the 11.1.0 are gone so I have no way to test.

Creating physical standby

HI,
I am trying to create a new physical standby for my production database.
I have taken a copy of database.
Then i created backup control file... This was created when database was open... Should create it when primary database is mounted ( not open )...
I am getting following error while trying to apply archive files...
ORA-01547: warning: RECOVER succeeded but OPEN RESETLOGS would get error below
ORA-01152: file 1 was not restored from a sufficiently old backup
ORA-01110: data file 1: 'O:\ORADATA\NEFT\SYSTEM01.DBF'

Hi,
What is your version?
Did you sure you are create backup control file for standby?
Please check on Standby side: select database_role from v$database;
If you database is created successfully, then you must start Apply process on standby database
for recover managed standby.
alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;
OR
alter database recover managed standby database using current logfile disconnect from session; -- real time apply (after 11g)

The problem is well decribed in your alert log.....you are using Oracle Managed File names which means you will not be able to duplicate the database as RMAN won't be able to automatically generate new names for the files using the DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT initialization parameters.
Youll have to use the SET NEWNAME command to specify the names of the database files. Done this a few times , and I don't recommend using OMF specifically beacuse of this hassle.
WARNING: OMF is enabled on this database. Creating a physical standby controlfile, when OMF is enabled on the primary database, requires manual RMAN intervention to resolve OMF
datafile pathnames.
NOTE: Please refer to the RMAN documentation for procedures describing how to manually resolve OMF datafile pathnames.
