Need help on Physical standby database

Currently our physical standby database is running in manual mode and logs are applied by me manually delay of 2 days.
And also when I add a data file in the primary database ,I've to manually add the file again on the standby .
This process is becoming too laborious, now I want to automate this process,
Now my question is
For automating this process ,do I need to bounce the database ?
I want to have 2 days gap for archive log apply process? How should I do that.
And what all parameters I need to change.
Please advice....

Need advice regarding physical standby databases in rac environment on orac

need advice regarding physical standby databases in rac environment on oracle 10G r2
I like to have have a Primary ( 10 node RAC cluster ) shipping to a physical standby ( 3 node RAC cluster ) shipping using LGWR .
So I have a lot of questions
1) What will be the performance overhead on the Primay if we are using LGWR SYNC option .
2) Does the overhead depends on the physical distance between primary & physical
3)Do you recommend a seperate private network for shipping logs between primary and standby.
4) I know that DGMGRL supports RAC only from 10g. So are there any know issues are bugs using DGMGRL is RAC environments.
Thanks in advance

Generally you should have same CPU architecture and same operating system but it's not mandatory to have the exactly the same CPU model, the same number of CPU, the same RAM size etc.
Actually starting with 11.1 you don't need to have the same hardware setup: it 's even possible to have primary and standby database on different platforms: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28294/standby.htm#i72053.

Data Guard - Steps to install Physical standby database in an RHEL 5.6 x86

HI Team,
I need to install Physical standby database in a OS installed from factory with most basic packages. Please find the info in detail
Standby Server :
Database Version : 10g Release 2
Operating System : Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.6 (Tikanga) , RHEL 5.6 x86_64
swartis.dc$ free -m
total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 34158 33847 311 0 558 28367
-/+ buffers/cache: 4921 29237
Swap: 10001 63 9937
- Things i need to validate in the PROD server. Eg : Are the prod db version & standby db version should be the same, Do the OS need to be same ............ETC
- Basic Linux rpm required for standby server & any other pre-requisites required at standby server
- Verify connectivity speed btw servers to decide log file size
- Please give me more detailed steps , where i need to start the steps in installation of Physical standby database.
Thanks in advance.

Hello again;
Sorry for the Delay.
To this question "Do i need to install 10.2.0.2.0 ORACLE_HOME & on top of it apply 10.2.0.3.0 patchset.?"
Yes.
All my Oracle 10 installs started with 10.2.0.1 and then I patched up from there. If I remember correctly 10.2.0.1 may bark on Red Hat 5.
You can work around this by reviewing this file :
/etc/redhat-releaseSave whatever is in there somewhere and replace it with :
redhat-3After the install put back what was there and get rid of the "redhat-3".
I extra RPM's I used were :
rpm -ivh kernel-headers-2.6.18-164.el5.x86_64.rpm
rpm -ivh compat-libstdc++-33* libaio-devel*.x86_64.rpm
rpm -ivh elfutils-libelf-devel*.x86_64.rpm glibc-devel-2* gcc-4*.x86_64.rpm gcc-c++-4*.x86_64.rpm libstdc++-devel-4*.x86_64.rpm glibc-headers*.x86_64.rpm libgomp*.x86_64.rpm
rpm -ivh compat-libstdc++-33* libaio-devel*.x86_64.rpm
rpm -ivh sysstat*I searched my Red Hat Disks before hand and ran the RPM commands as shown. Adjust as needed.
To verify that the required packages have been installed on your system, run the following command :
pm -q --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE} (%{ARCH})\n" binutils \
compat-libstdc++-33 elfutils-libelf elfutils-libelf-devel gcc gcc-c++ glibc \
glibc-common glibc-devel-2.5 libaio libaio-devel libgcc libstdc++ libstdc++-devel \
make sysstatThis document is for Oracle 11, but the OS part should be the same.
http://www.visi.com/~mseberg/installing_oracle_11g_r2_64.html
Currently I have 3 servers running both Oracle 10 and 11 ( In different homes ) using this OS.
I have used Oracle 11 document with Oracle 10 also : ( Better once you are setup and a great standby recovery document )

Physical standby database, dblinks derived frn schemas help

I observed that many of the procedure,function,trigger of the database using dblinks which are derived from two schemas within the same database (i.e. eg: DBlink "CIS_TO_HIS" created in CISPROD schema connecting HISPROD schema of the same database). Now Oracle doesn't recommend this type of coding as a suitable.
But I am more concerned about implementing the same code over data guard in Physical standby database as it will be in read only mode and will have different TNS names entry. Therefore since database link uses TNS entry and physical standby would be using a separate TNS entry from primary, this might be a risk of transaction using those dblinks will fail. Hence can you please let me know the risk areas in physical standby of using dblink within same database?

The best solution for you is to stop using DB links between different DB schemas in the same DB.
If you do not use RAC, one workaround would be to use the loopback IP (127.0.0.1) to define your TNS connection over.
<Your DB>=
(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)
(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = <Your DB>)))That way, if you hit the production server, the TNS will lead you to the production DB, and if you hit the standby server, you’ll go to the standby DB.
You would need to create another TNS entry for the production DB on the standby server and use it for standby replication.
Since this change might affect production operation and failover abilities, you need to thoroughly test it.

Physical standby database implementation

Hi!
I am trying to implement a Physical standby database, I have already done it with both the primary and secondary in the same server and successfully shipped the logs and have it configured using Data Guard.
But Now I am trying to implement the Physical standby in a separate server, but the logs are not getting shipped, I am using Oracle 9i Enterprise edition. I have checked all the steps, but not able to find the reason, why the logs are not getting shipped to the standby.
Also I am not able to discover the Primary node from the Standby and I have Windows 2003 server in my standby and Windows XP Prof. in the Primary, Is this the reason, why my logs are not getting shipped?
Please help. Thanks in Advance.

Hi!,
Thanks for ur response, I am posting my alert log here... can u please help me... I probably think it is the OS issue too... Your inputs are greatly appreciated...
Thanks

Steps To Create Physical Standby Database In Windows 7

Hi All,
I want to create a physical standby database in my windows 7 system. I have created one service stdby in my machine with all your help and now I need your help to configure standby configuration.
I am using Oracle 10G version 10.2.0.1.0.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Arijit

[on primary]
step-1 check if archiving is enable

Archive destination            /PGHProdDB/archive/paceview/
Oldest online log sequence     52
Next log sequence to archive   54
Current log sequence           54
step-2
sqlplus> ALTER DATABASE force logging;step-3
connect to rman
take an full backup
RMAN RUN {

backup current controlfile for standby format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/sb_t%t_s%s_p%p';
release channel d1;
step-4
now copying initpfile,pwdfile on appropriate destination and rename it.
step 5
now create listener on standby db side::
and restart it by ----

Problem with data guard Creating a Physical Standby Database turorial

There is a tutorial of Creating a data guard Physical Standby Database:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/11gr1_db/ha/dataguard/physstby/physstdby.htm
I tried to install it on two servers. One for primary database second for physical standby.
I have error on C. Creating the standby database over the network, action #6:
"On the standby system, set the ORACLE_SID environment variable to your <physical standby SID> (i.e. orclsby1) and start the instance in NOMOUNT mode with the text initialization parameter file."
When I try to connect to idle instance there is an error pops up:
C:\>sqlplus / as sysdba

ERROR:
ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
I'v checked listener and it is runned. There is no service for database because there is no database yet.
The question is did some one installed data guard configuration using this tutorial? Is there any errors in it? What should I do to finish this installation?

On Windhose for every instance a service must have been created using the oradim command.
Oracle tutorials are usually Unix-centric, as Windhose is an odd man out, so they don't discuss that bit.
'Kindly do the needful' and create the service prior to starting the instance in nomount mode
Hint: oradim is documented and has a help=y clause.
IIRC there is an option in database control (in the maintenance part) which automates everything.

Clarification on creating a Physical Standby Database

I'm practicing with data guard with Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 on two Windows 2003 servers.
I'm in the process of creating a physical standby database by following the steps outlined in the guide http://www.filibeto.org/sun/lib/nonsun/oracle/10.2.0.1.0/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/create_ps.htm
I've created the primary database and did a cold backup of all the datafiles and copied them to the standby server using OS commands. I've created a pfile from the spile in primary database and changed the needed parameters for the standby database.
What I don't understand is this statement I think is creating a control file for the standby database: SQL> ALTER DATABASE CREATE STANDBY CONTROLFILE AS '/tamp/standby.ctl'
Exactly what I don't understand is what to do with this control file. I'm thinking that if I try to use it as the controlfile for the standby database, the standby database will refuse to open since the database name in the control file wont match the one the server expects.
I don't want to proceed until this becomes clear. So my question is what to do with the output of the above statement that seems to create a control file for the standby database.
Any help would be appreciated.
Dula

You're thinking wrong.
Please clarify the difference between db_name and
db_unique_name.
Db_unique_name needs to be identical for both primary
AND standby database.
If db_unique_name differs, you'll get errors.
Sybrand,
Perhaps, you meant DB_NAME has to be identical for both databases.
DB_NAME name has to be the same for both primary and physical standby database.
DB_UNIQUE_NAME should be unique for each database in the standby configuration.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/create_ps.htm#i68626
If you configure Logical Standby Database, DB_NAME may be different.
For the original poster: Chapter 3 - Creating a Physical Standby Database of Oracle® Data Guard Concepts and Administration has all the steps you have to do in order to configure a physical standby database.

Bringing a Physical Standby database online without (a) tablespace(s)

Dear all,
Is it possible to create a kind of "dblink" in a physical standby database residing in a remote host (another host than the primary production database)? We want to make this standby DB to be online without one tablespace.
Our database consists of 2 parts: a core part (around 55 Gb) - stored in 2 tablespaces, residing in one mounted disk - and an "attachment" part (around 550 Gb) - stored in one tablespace, residing in 2 mounted disks. The attachment part is of less importance. We would like to make a standby DB for the core part and exclude the attachment part (because of its extensive size) to be online.
Currently we can not put this physical standby DB online, since it requires the attachment datafiles to be available.
Would it be a problem if we NFS mount these 2 disks on the host where the standby database resides?
The best solution would be if we can tell the standby DB that there is no need to update the attachment tablespace.
Thanx a lot for anyone reading, thinking and most of all give the solution for my problem...
Agape
Thanx in advance.

Hi Sybrand,
Since we only will use the standby DB in read only mode, maybe the use of a Logical one will be usefull afterall.
Can you please explain how to configure this need (having a standby DB without this one large TB) in a Logical standby DB?
Your help will be highly appreciated.
Thanx

Upgrading with a physical standby database in place

Hi all
I am planning to upgrade my database which is 11.2.0.1 (Windows 32 platform) to 11.2.0.3. It has a primary standby database. I only have 1 server for testing the primary database, so I am looking for some help.
I was reading http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28294/upgrades.htm#CHDBJAGG and I confuse about step 4 and 5
+4. Install the new release of the Oracle software into a new Oracle home on the physical standby database system, as described in the Oracle Database Upgrade Guide.+
+5. Mount the physical standby database.+
My question is in step 5, when I mount the physical standby database, does it mounted using new Oracle binary or still using the old version? From my understanding what is step 4 doing is to copying files to new home only. Changing the service to use the new oracle binary is done by dbua. I know this when I test upgrading the primary database.
Regards
Stanley.

Hello;
new Oracle binary or the new Oracle home if you will.
So you install the new software on the standby only, all the upgrade SQL gets done on the Primary and then you ENABLE and startup mount on the new oracle home and the standby gets upgraded from the Primary redo.
Its pretty simple ( My exact plan )
1. Disable log shipping from the Primary
2. Shutdown Standby
3. Install 11.2.0.3 on Standby - Just the software
4. Startup Standby in recovery mode - do NOT run r any SQL at the standby
5. Shutdown Primary
6. Install 11.2.0.3 on Primary
7. Run Upgrade SQL or DBUA at Primary
8. Re-enable log shipping
9. Monitor the redo apply from Primary to Standby - this will also upgrade the Standby data dictionary
Make sure your tnsnames and listener files move to the new Oracle home and edit as needed.
Another oracle note is 278641.1

Ora-38500 physical standby database not started

hiiii,
When i executed the command at physical standby database server.
it give error:
To start real-time apply:
SQL> ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE
2> USING CURRENT LOGFILE;
Error at line 1:
ORA: 38500 using current logfile option not available without stand.
please help me how could i start physical standby database
Regards
Vaibhav Dixit

Hi Vaibhav,
What exactly do you want to do?
Alter database recover managed standby database; --->it will be in Manged Recovery mode.
Alter database mount standby database; ----> it will be mounted, but no log files applies.
Alter database open read only; ----> it will be open with read only option, but archeive logs will NOT be applied
If you want to apply the Archive logs which are trasfered from Primary, then you need to fire the below commands
Alter database recover managed standby database;
Alter database recover managed standby database using current logfile;
Alter database recover managed standby database using current logfile disconnect from session;
To stop applying archives then,
Alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
Thanks and Regards.

Problem in switchover to physical standby database

Hi All,
I am doing switchover from primary to physical standby database. Physical standby is in 'managed recovery' mode using real time apply and is in mount mode. I executed alter database commit to switchover to physical standby with session shutdown command. Now i am waiting for standby mrp to exit after processing eor record, but it seems mrp was hanged.
Below is the content from standby database:
Recovery of Online Redo Log: Thread 1 Group 5 Seq 620 Reading mem 0
Mem# 0: /oracle/app/oracle/dbrac/th1-redo5a.log
Resetting standby activation ID 749049115 (0x2ca5951b)

Need some help to resolve.
Thanks

Error while creating physical standby database using Oracle Grid 10.2.0.5

Hi All,
I am setting up data guard using oracle grid.
Primary database version: - 10.2.0.4
Standby database version: - 10.2.0.4
Primary OS Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 8)2.6.9
Standby OS Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 8)2.6.9
I am creating physical standby database using EM. But it is getting failed with error message in sqlnet.ora file
Fatal NI connect error 12533, connecting to:
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=)(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=INPRDSB_XPT)(SERVER=dedicated)(CID=(PROGRAM=oracle)(HOST=indb50.oii.com)(USER=oracle))))
VERSION INFORMATION:
        TNS for Linux: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
        TCP/IP NT Protocol Adapter for Linux: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
Time: 17-AUG-2010 02:40:07
Tracing not turned on.
Tns error struct:

    TNS-12533: TNS:illegal ADDRESS parameters
    ns secondary err code: 0
    nt main err code: 0
    nt secondary err code: 0As we can see, address_list is empty.
Can anyone suggest what could be the reason behind this?

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.
