Creating standby on unpatched server

hi ,
I have primary db on oracle 9.2.0.8 with CPU April 2009 patch ,
can I create physical standby db on oracle home 9.2.0.8 without any patch ?
is that OK if I switch my primary db over to the non patched server ?
thanks
tapash

thanks for the input
I have issue when applying April CPU 2009 patch on new server, opened SR , working on this ......
I need to switchover to new server ASAP and the primary server to be released.
trying to find some workaround
thanks........

Can we create standby database on same server as primary database

I have Oracle 10g Rel2, OS Windows server 2003. Can I create standby database on same server on which we have our primary database?

The INSTANCE: WHen I create a VM Image, I specify the name (like a SID), configuration (like PFILE), and location (like ORACLE_BASE/oradata/ ...)
And just like Oracle with which I can have 2 or more instances running on the host (if there is sufficient memory and other resource), I can have 2 or more VM Images running on my host.
And just like Oracle, if I have insufficient resources, things get slow like molasses in the middle of winter.
Hope your desktop has at least 4GB of OS-addressible RAM and at least dual-core CPU. ALternately ... I hope you have lots of coin for the coffee machine.

Hello;
Generally for the connection to work you need to add something like this to the listener.ora file :
(SID_DESC =
    (global_dbname = STANDBY.hostname)
    (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2)
    (sid_name = STANDBY)
)You should stop and start the listener on the Standby after adding this. Also your tnsnames.ora must be correct on both the primary and the Standby.
Also you need an INIT for the Standby side :
STANDBY.__db_cache_size=343932928

Creating Standby Database from ASM Databse none ASM

I have ASM RAC database running on Solaris 10. I want to take a backup with RMAN and move the Backup to none ASM on other Stand alone server. I want to use this none ASM backup database to create Standby Database for Test purpose. Is it doable? If it is doable can you answer following questions?
What command should I use with RMAN to take a full backup and move it to none ASM platform?
Thank you

Well, the answer is most likely yes, but first need to confirm
- Do you want a physical or logical standby?
- Will the standby run on the same platform , i.e. also Solaris 10?
- What version of database ? It is much easier in 11g.

ORA-19505: failed to identify file - RMAN in creating standby DR database.

I got this error when creating standby database at remote target server.
ORA-19505: failed to identify file "/backup/dxp1p/online/DXP1P_CF_c-2027711285-20131204-01"
Here is what I did:
1.   started the listener and created corresponding tnsnames entry at remote standyb server
2. startup nomount to the standby database at remote server for an empty instance (instance name dxp1p).
3. All rman backups are in the /backup mount point at primary and the mount point is shared on the remote server as nfs.   So, whatever have in the backup we should be able to see and read from the remote as well.
4. Run the following at primary rman:
sql 'alter system archive log current';
backup current controlfile for standby;
sql 'alter system archive log current';
crosscheck backup;
crosscheck archivelog all;
exit
5.   Start the rman command from primary after connected to the standby server, as the primary DB uses ASM and the standby DB uses file system for the database files:
RUN

Use the following SQL commands on the standby database to create
standby redo logfiles that match the primary database:

Any suggestions?

Creating standby database

Hi
I want create standby database in Oracle 10g.
I can create standart database by using database configuration assistant.
How can I create standby database in Oracle 10g?

Hi,
Standby databases, in a nutshell, acts as a failover for our mission critical production databases. When production database crashes, applications can quickly switchover to the stand by databases.
What type of Standy you are willing to go for ??
Physical Standby Database
Standby database is called “physical” if the physical structure of stand by exactly matches with stand by structure. Archived redo log transferred from primary database will be directly applied to the stand by database.
Logical Standby Database
Stand by database is called “logical”, the physical structure of both
databases do not match and from the archived redo log we create SQL statements then these statements will be applied to stand by database.
Follow this link for creating standby database

Create standby database using restore backup

Hi,
I am creating a standby database 11g using manual process of restoring a backup , but to no avail. I can not even restore the backup successfully.
This is the steps I followed (courtesy of ORACLE-BASE) ORACLE-BASE - Data Guard Physical Standby Setup in Oracle Database 11g Release 2
I am confused about these steps:
Copy the files from the primary to the standby server.
Copy Standby controlfile to all locations.
$ scp oracle@ol5-112-dga1:/tmp/db11g_stby.ctl /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl
$ cp /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl
My question is, for the 2nd copy, do I need to shutdown the primary db? since control01.ctl is being updated all the time?
Can I not used the standby ctl (db11g_stbg.ctl) and copy it to /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl instead?
Your assistance is highly appreciated.

Hi,
You are created standby control file on primary and copied to standby side:
$ scp oracle@ol5-112-dga1:/tmp/db11g_stby.ctl /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl
And now, in paramter files, you have CONTROL_FILES parameter as below :
control_files='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl', '/u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl'
it means you must copy controlfile IN standby side to second control file. Control files must be same.
$ cp /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl
My question is, for the 2nd copy, do I need to shutdown the primary db? since control01.ctl is being updated all the time?
You not need shutdown priamry database, becuase you copied standby control file to standby side, and all operations goin in standby side.
Can I not used the standby ctl (db11g_stbg.ctl) and copy it to /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl instead?
Yes, you can use (db11g_stbg.ctl) standby controlfile

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.

How to create standby controlfile from restored backup

Hi Techies,
I am re-building one of my DR server, Source and target DB is oracle 10g.
I have taken the source backup which is going to be restored on target, But I forgot to take a standby controlfile from source DB at the time (Pre/Post) backup.
Now the issue is I can create a standby controlfile on primary and copy the same to target, But so many datafiles are added after the backup which I have taken to restore and medias are already shipped.
I can send the other set of backup to DR site, but it takes a week time and I don't want to do that If I can regenerate it.
So any clue to create standby controlfile on target with restored datafiles?
Regards,
Nick Loy

Hmm... sounds like you perform this in a rather manual fashion...
Do you use RMAN for taking the backups?
Or maybe the BR*TOOLS?
With these tools you are usually safe from such mistakes - I can only recommend to use them!
However, since you don't have a control file at all on the target side, the only thing left to do would be to
ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE NORESETLOGS;
on the primary side and manually remove the files that have been added since you took the backup from the control file script,
Afterwards you use the script on the standby side to create the control files.

Problem when create standby database

hello,
I have two server(NT4.0,SP6) installed Oracle 8i(8.1.6 Enterprise) at the same directory.I want one as the primary database,another one as the standby database.
The two database have the same SID,use SQL*Plus it can access each other.
My operating steps as below:
1.on primary server:
1)connect internal;
2)shutdown immediate;
3)copy all datafiles(*.DBF) to a backup directory;
4)startup
5)alter database create standby controlfile as 'd:\oracle\ora81\ILLDB\standby.ctl'
6)alter system archive log current
2.on standby server:
1)copy all backuped datafile,standby.ctl,all redo log files from primary server to standby server,overwrite all same name files;
2)modify the init.ora,add this parameter:
"standby_archive_dest = "location=D:\Oracle\oradata\ILLDB\archive" ";
3)statup oracle service in Service control manel;
4)run svrmgrl.exe;
5)startup nomount;
6)alter database mount standby database;
then a error message appear:
"ORA-01665 controlfile is not a standby controlfile".
I don't know which step is mistake.Please tell me correct steps.
Thanks

I did face the similar problem while trying to create and startup a clone database for Point in Time Recovery (PITR). The error message is
ORA-01696 controlfile is not a clone controlfile
Are you folks have any idea how do I resolve this problem?? Is there any way to create clone control file??

Creating Standby Database / Steps might be missing..

I have created standby database..
The archives are copied except one archived log and those copied archived are not applied at Standby database.
Besides this issue, I just checked the alert log file and pasting its contents here.
Do check it and let me know If I m missing any paramter[s].

Done, I've given the same path in Standby Database [datafiles, controlfiles] as it has been given in the Primary Database.
MoreOver, I m manually switching logfiles at primary database [alter system switch logfile] they are copied and applied sucessfully at standby database. But the archived files that I have copied with cold backup are not applied yet. Infact they are not retrieved executing the below query.
select name, applied from v$archived_log;
How can I apply those archived logs? [archives that copied with cold backup]
Regards.
