Media Recovery Waiting for thread 1 sequence (in transit)

I have rebuilt our standby database using an rman duplicate since it was missing many archive logs.
Following the duplicate, the standby is now almost in sync with the primary. Logs are shipping across but are not being applied in a timely manner. How long should it take for an archive log from the primary to be applied to the standby?
I need to know this so that a proper script can be set up to check the primary and standby. At the moment they are never exactly in sync - always one sequence number behind the primary.
Why is the standby is not applying in a timely manner?
From the alert log:
Media Recovery Waiting for thread 1 sequence 11278 (in transit)
The log seems to be "in transit" for a long time

Media Recovery Waiting for thread 1 sequence 11278 (in transit)
I should add that I understand that for the Primary and Standby to be out by one log is not cause for concern (they are applying). Its just that I wanted to script a check that would compare them both, and and the moment they are never equal - when I understand that they should be and that the logs should be applied almost immediately.

How long should it take for an archive log from the primary to be applied to the standby?depends on network speed also.
make sure the archives are shipped to standby location.
PRIMARY:
SQL> select max (sequence#) current_seq from v$log;
CURRENT_SEQ
11278(this is log not archivelog ) ..... :)SB:
SQL> select MAX (SEQUENCE#), APPLIED FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG where APPLIED ='YES' GROUP BY APPLIED;
MAX(SEQUENCE#) APP
11277 YES
Hi check is MRP started or not?
primary database you need not check current sequence, check last generated sequence..not current sequence.
current sequence is redo log which has been not yet archived
I think everything is perfect here.. no issues.
Hope you understood, let me know if not clear , thanks.

Standby media recovery waiting for inactive thread

Hi,
Please let me know any idea on this scenario. Thanks.
Environment:
Oracle 11.2.0.2
primary: 3 node RAC
standby: 3 node RAC
Problem:
there is thread 5 (not registered instance or did not show in srvctl) that generates archivelog. but the lag apply stopped because of this when the instance (of thread 5) is shutdown.
question: somehow an instance is registered in the cluster but in srvctl only 3 instance is running. it should have 4 instance but 1 is not running. How can I remove the thread 5 so when someone startup then shutdown instance#4 it will not create archivelog that will stopped the apply of archivelog in standby.
note: this is perf environment server so someone and "other" DBA is accessing this environment which I am not aware what are they doing with the cluster.
looking in alert log file: - it is waiting for thread 5 sequence 510. But the instance is down so log is not shipped to standby database and this resulted to lag in other threads.

in Standby, thread 4 and 5 are both UNUSED, and size is incorrect (not equal to other redo log). I want to recreate it but cannot drop redo log. I follow Doc ID 740675.1.
any idea what are the missing steps? thanks.

Update of jlabel does not happen when i wait for thread to finish (join())

gurus please help.
I have a main application which in actionevent calls a thread, that thread calls parent method to update ths status in jlabel, but when i use thread.join() to wait for process to complete, the jlabel does not get updated, please tell me how can i update the jlabel, i have to wait for thread to finish and during run i need to update the jlabel.
thanks

hi camickr and gurus:
here is the code:
notice after pressing the Process button, the label is being updated but its not working. I called the processnow() method directly and also by thread, but in thread I have to wait until it finishes using join() but still does not work, please help. Thanks

ORA-16145: archival for thread# sequence# in progress

Hi,
10gR2 Database is configured in Dataguard maximum performance mode with no standby redo log file.
Archive log switching application on standby was working earlier but , it's stopped and unable to apply archive log on standby.For command 'recover standby database' it's giving ORA-16145: archival for thread#1 sequence# 5 in progress. The archive file is copied manually also ,but even though the problem persists.No archive log gap found for the secondary.the archivelogs are getting shipped properly.
Any suggestion? Thanks..

Hi,
FTPed the archive log file and started the standby recovery but ,
it gave error:ORA-01274: cannot add datafile

Servlet waiting for threads to end

Hi !
To make our web app more efficient, we wanted to delegate some work to threads. But it seems that the servlet engine (or something else) is waiting for all spawned threads to end before sending the response back to the browser. So, if a servlet finishes execution but the threads it spawned are still working, I do not get the next page in the browser. I only do when all threads are done. So my question is : is this a normal behavior of the servlet engine ? If so, why ? If not, what could I have done wrong, what should I look out for when using threads inside servlets ?
Thanks,
Martin

Yup I agree with the other guys.
I am building a servlet that has 2 threads running continuously (looping), and they do not bother the requests/responses at all. But in your case if I understand correctly, you spawn threads from the request. You must have some kind of interaction between them.
Are you sure you are spawning the code in a separate thread??. I use something like this:
class Mythread extends Thread
public void run()
// code here
THread threadobject = new Mythread();
threadobject.start(); //( DO NOT CALL THE run() method, but the start() method.)
Are your threads sleeping (to not hog up all CPU power???). Are your threads higher priority then the normal?.
See ya,
Andre

Cisco Media Hub - Waiting for Media Information on the web application

Good afternoon, I just installed the Media Hub on my Mac. I find the flac music on the media hub through the finder and the web application from media hub (in the configuration settings). Until now I don't see any information concerning the songs on the web application itself (they say that one has to wait several hours until the refresh process of the web application is through). I use kinsky desktop for my hifi (linn majic ds) and the MplayerX on my Mac.
- Does anyone has the same problems with waiting for the update of the media information on the web application
- Which software do you recommend for managing your media (mp3, wmv, flac)
Many thanks for your feedback, A.

Hi Archimedes76,
I use windows media player to manage my music files. Regarding your music file info issue, sometimes I do have to restart my media hub so that it'll re-index the files especially if I transferred a lot of new media. If after a restart and waiting for a few hours while the media rescan and reindex files doesn't work for you then you might try to read this. I found it on the linksys support page though the example shown there is a windows PC.
Hope this helps!

Waiting for Thread to finish execution

I have a program which uses a thread to copy files. While they are copying, a ProgressMonitor comes up displaying the current file being copied. After this has completed, my main program needs to be notified and go on with it's own code.

Media Recovery Log    DATAGUARD

hi all ,
i have installed 10.2.0.2 databases and configure dataguard. everything works fine but i have 1 problem.
imagine that server 1 is primary ;
when i check on server 1 ; (primary DB)

if i do switchover i faced with same reverse situation ; ( old primary acts like the old standby and old standby acts like old primary db )
i have already set log_archive_dest_1 on both server.
i want both standby and primary db locates the archive logs on */u01/app/oracle/archive/SID* not on */u01/app/oracle/product/10g/dbs/*
what do i have to correct this situation ???

What is Media Recovery Log ..? Physical Standby Database

Hello All,
In my physical stdby database alert log I could see the below message, I'm not sure what id Media Recovery Log and why it is dumping ORACLE_HOME Directory..?
Could any one please help on this..? I need to house keep ORACLE_HOME directory.

Hello;
The alert log is providing you with information. If you want more run this query :
select process,status,client_process,sequence# from v$managed_standby;You should see processes like ARCH, RFS and MRP0.
MRP will tell you if its applying log(s), waiting for a log, or if it thinks there's a gap.

is this a bug too or a real problem?

According to Note: 284618.1 "Archivelog for thread % sequence % will NOT be compressed" message in trace files on 10.1.0.x, it is just an informational message and can be ignored.
Your version on the other hand is 10.2.0.2. There are several unanswered forum thread on metalink concerning the message in 10.2.0.2 database. One thread answers by Oracle supports points the person asking the question to the note above.

could you help on this...?
waiting for your favorable reply,
thanks in advance..

Hi;
This error occurs when you have run a switchover/ failover, you may have two parallel standby's but when you pass the command for switchover the one standby is not aware of what you have done.
The point is that all standby should know who is your primary & standby's should also be aware of each other in their "pfiles" now, you should either recreate the standby or open with reset logs.
ora-600 occurs due to different incarnation.
Hope this will help you
if you switch multiple logfiles in primary, & run >>
alter database recover managed standby database disconnect;
your standby will start syncing.
Hope this will help you

NiDCPower Wait For Event

Hello,
I am using the PXIe-4139 SMU to source a current sequence that starts when a trigger is received and takes about 40 seconds to complete.
After the niDCPower Initiate VI I have inserted the niDCPower Wait For Event VI with a timeout set to 300 seconds to allow for enough time to receive the trigger and complete the sequence. This VI waits for the Sequence Engine Done Event.
Now this works fine, however, when the user wishes to stop the programm for whatever reasons, they have to wait the full 300 seconds until the Wait For Event VI produces a timeout error and stops the programm. This is rather inconvenient. How can I change the programm so that the user can stop it even when the Wait For Event VI hasn't reached its timeout?
I tried this:
But this doesn't work. For some reason, I get a timeout error with code -200474 but the boolean operator returns FALSE.
Any other ideas?

If there an output on the wait for event VI that flags a timeout? If so, set the timeout short (like 100 msec) and wait for 3000 timeouts before continuing on.
Oh, and use an event structure. Timeout event (timeout=0) checks the wait for event, value change event for button breaks out of loop.

RMAN Restore Error - media recovery requesting unknown log: thread 1 seq 7

Im using RMAN to copy a database to another server. The new server is IDENTICAL to the old one. By identical I mean it has the same sever name, ip address, operating system, Oracle version and directory structure.
The new server already has the instance created, (same name as the old server instance, paths etc)
The backup files have been manually restored to the new server, same locations as they were on the old one. ( RMAN did an automatic controlfile backup and also the archivelogs on the old server ).
Ive restored the control file on the new server from the RMAN backup pieces.
Ive catalogued the RMAN backup pieces on the new server.
I know the last sequence available in the archivelogs backup by running on the new server :
list backup of archivelog all;

So far its all going swimmingly well.
Now I want to restore the datafiles and recover. So I ran :
RMAN run { restore database; recover database; alter database open resetlogs; }
This gave me the output below which goes great but I get a final error, I think the error is because its looking for an archive log thats not in the backup set, but it should be. However, I think SCN 560851 is for a log that hadnt been created yet on the old server when the backup was ran ?
How do I address resolving the error ? Its worth pointing out log, "archive log filename=C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\FLASH_RECOVERY_AREA\SAT\ARCHIVELOG
\2011_05_11\O1_MF_1_6_6WOK1X4W_.ARC recid=10 stamp=750881741" isnt on the old server either which is why its not in the backup set.
I can do a alter database open reset logs but Id prefer to know why its failing.
Any help would be much appreciated.

You need to do incomplete recovery i.e. to ask RMAN to restore/recover to some specific point in time. This is usually done with some UNTIL clause or SET UNTIL statement. Example in your case:
SET UNTIL SEQUENCE 7;See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14194/rcmsynta065.htm#RCMRF160.

What does mean this message? I must do something to continue job. Is it possible to automate this?

Your robot musn't be correctly ejecting the media to a loadport.
Do you see loadports available from obtool lsvol -l -L vtl_test ?
Thank
Rich
