ORA-279 signalled during recovery of standby database

Hi All,
I am preparing standby database after taking hot backup and copying those datafiles to standby,
taken controlfile standby controlfile backup from primary
mounted the standby database using standby controlfile using
startup nomount pfile='/u01/stand.ora'
alter database mount standby database;
Now I have started applying archives on standby database after copying all archives from primary to standby box the archives generated during backup using..
recover standby database;
But I am getting the below warning on the recovery screen...

Hi Sukanta,
I didn't really understand what the problem is...
Let me explain, hope it will be clear.
You created a standby control file, and backed up the database (it doesn't matter in which order). Now, you have a standby database that is ready to apply logs. It will be able to apply log forever, until we will stop it.
The messages you see say the following:
ORA-00279: change 51667831821 generated at 07/02/2009 01:19:40 needed for thread 1 {color:blue} - this says that the recovery process is now at scn 51667831821 {color}
ORA-00289: suggestion : /nodal-archive/archive/1_55121_652209172.arc {color:blue} - the information needed for the recover is in this file (this is only the default name, you can choose other name if the file is called differently) {color}
ORA-00280: change 51667831821 for thread 1 is in sequence #55121 {color:blue} - same here, the needed archive is sequence 55121 {color}
ORA-00278: log file '/nodal-archive/archive/1_55120_652209172.arc' no longer needed for this recovery {color:blue} - this message is after Oracle has applied the log, and it means that this log is no longer needed {color}
Now it will wait for the next log. Again, this process is endless, this is how it is made to allow the standby database to be always synched with the primary.

    damorgan,
    He is running 8.1.7.0. "DataGuard" scripts were initially available for 9i and then
    backported (and available as a seperate download) for 8i. Many 8i implementations
    did not and do not use DataGuard.
    Even if it is "Jurassic" {which it certainly is NOT}, they obviously do have a good
    reason for setting up a standby -- they DO have data of value. So, maybe they have
    not upgraded to 9i or 10g. There could be a dozen reasons
    1. Server HW/OS doesn't support 9i/10g, not budgetting for Server upgrade
    2. Application using Forms 2.x or 4.5 and not tested on 9i / 10g (4.5 not certified
    on 9i)
    3. Low end client PCs working perfectly with Character-mode forms, not powerful
    enought to run Jinitiator and Forms 6i / 9i
    Just because someone hasn't upgraded to 10g doesn't mean that they are at fault
    when you do NOT know the reason why they have not upgraded.
    Surely, they do know that 8i is desupported. Don't you think that their management
    has undertaken due diligence / cost-benefit analysis in considering whether they
    should upgrade to 10g ?
    Maybe they have another project implementing 10g in parallel and will be able
    to shutdown this environment soon. Maybe they don't need to do so.
    Do understand that people are intelligent enough to make their own decisions
    considering their particular circumstances and don't go shooting off with your
    assumption that anyone not running 10g is a dinosaur.

  • MANAGED RECOVERY AT STANDBY DATABASE REQURING OLD ARCHIVELOGS ORA-00308

    Oracle 9.2.0.4
    HP-UX 11.11i
    The database in Archivelog mode, single standby database in managed recovery
    mode.
    keeping standby in sync with manual applying the ARCHIVELOG from primary to
    standby database.
    primary database was 3 REDO log members of 100 MB with 1 member each.
    what i did, 1 drop and re-create the INACTIVE REDO group for all three, and
    make them
    5 REDO logs of 200 MB with 1 member each,
    then in order to keep fresh copy of primary database onto standby database, i
    send the cold backup after 15 days (last week) with standby controlfile.
    now, with that standby controlfile and the database, i can mount the database
    but while to open the database, receives messages as , it requiring the
    ARCHIVELOGS generated log time ago.
    changes the REDO groups from 3 to 5 and size 100 to 200 MB at INACTIVE state

    The oracle is 11.2.0 on Linux
    There is no space issue on disk
    Thanks for any help/ideas...

    thanks for the reply.
    first one I stated in the original post. there is tons of storage :)
    for the others 2 -

    Hi,
    First thanks for your quick response.
    The only thing that we have running in the database is a scheduled program how run every 3 min to switch the current log and he applied the archive log to the standby database!!!
    It can be a session how is trying to do this "Alter database clear unarchived logfile...." ?

  • ORA-16831: operation disallowed on this standby database type

    Om my primary database, i am getting this error when i give ADD database command. How i can resolve. The difference between primary & secondary is that primary is 64bit OS and secondary is 32bit OS. Both have 12gr2 and linux.
    DGMGRL> ADD DATABASE tbdb AS CONNECT IDENTIFIER IS tbdb MAINTAINED AS PHYSICAL;
    Error: ORA-16831: operation disallowed on this standby database type

    It's supported till 10g. But data guard broker is not supported if you use different binaries. See support note 414043.1

  • ORA-604 signalled during: ALTER TABLESPACE...

    Oracle 10.2.0.4 EE, Server 2003...
    Today I wanted to add new datafile…
    First I restart the instance and then used EM to add datafile… After 5 minutes process failed and in AlertSID.ora I get this message:

    ===========================================================
    Then I create datafile with command prompt and everything was fine, new datafile was added.
    Any Ideas why does this happen?
    Thanks!

    Error message was only:

    As I said, I used EM and after 5 minutes EM connection failed. Then I re-connect and EM don’t show me any errors, everything was fine but new datafile was not added. Only I get error message in AlertSID.ora…

  • ORA-1113 signalled during: alter database open...

    Hello,
    Today when I was unable to logon to my Oracle 9i database on Windows machine, I referred to the Alter.log file.
    This file showed me the above error.
    And when I try to logon to database with normal user, I get the error as "Database initialization or shutdown is in progress"
    When I tried to log on using the DBA privileges, I can see that my Database is MOUNTED.
    What should I do next? Do I bring the database down forcefully using the "Shutdown abort" command? and then at the startup when some datafile is shown as required to recovery then, recover the datafile using following command:
    RECOVER AUTOMATIC DATAFILE 'file_Path';
    Please guide
    Thanks in advance
    Himanshu

    ORA-01113 file string needs media recovery
    Cause: An attempt was made to open a datafile that is in need of media recovery.
    Action: First apply media recovery to the datafile identified in the message, then retry the operation.
    media recovery for datafile is required
    log as sys user.

  • 10g standard edition, create a manual standby without ORA-279 and ORA-308.

    Hi,
    I have a 10 g database 10g r2 on linux rhel 5.2. I've create a standby database from an rman backup on another server (same name, same path....).
    every 10 minutes , i switch log on primary database and rsync them to the stanby path on stanby server.
    every 10 minutes, i apply the new received archive to the standby database with this script :
    sqlplus /nolog
    connect / as sysdba
    recover database until cancel using backup controlfile;
    AUTO
    recover database until cancel using backup controlfile;
    CANCEL
    exit
    this script gives some ORA errors like this :
    2010/03/31 Wed 11:30:03 Media Recovery Log /v4/db/oradata/LFEX/archives/1_61705_640182036.dbf
    2010/03/31 Wed 11:30:03 ORA-308 signalled during: ALTER DATABASE RECOVER CONTINUE DEFAULT ...
    2010/03/31 Wed 11:30:04 ORA-279 signalled during: ALTER DATABASE RECOVER database until cancel using backup controlfile ...
    2010/03/31 Wed 11:40:01 ORA-279 signalled during: ALTER DATABASE RECOVER database until cancel using backup controlfile ...
    I understand this error, the script is searching the next archive, which doesn't exist at this time, that's OK.
    To avoid to have this error, i believe that i can do something like that:
    sqlplus /nolog
    connect / as sysdba
    recover database until time 'sysdate-1/(24*4)' using backup controlfile;
    AUTO
    exit
    i'm searching to replay the archive and stop 15 minutes before sysdate, Is it possible?
    when i try this, i have this message :
    SQL> recover database until time 'sysdate-1/(24*4)' using backup controlfile;
    ORA-01841: L'année (complète) doit être comprise entre -4713 et +9999 et être
    différente de 0.
    I'm trying to change nls_date_format, nls_lang without any success.
    thx.
    Antoine.

    i found a script to do an automatic recover script like this :
    recover database until time '2010-04-01:16:49:05' using backup controlfile;
    ORA-00279: changement 2456430208 généré à 04/01/2010 16:31:01 requis pour thread 1

    ORA-00278: le fichier journal
    '/v4/db/oradata/LFEX/archives/1_61853_640182036.dbf' n'est plus nécessaire pour cette récupération
    So i continue to have some error like ORA-278.... but no more ORA-308 error, it's better, because ORA-278 279 and 280 are only information messages, so i can ignore it in alert.log files.
    Only ORA-308 in this case interresting me, to see if an archive is really missing.
    thx.
    PS : the script standby_recover generate the recover.sql script :
    [dblegu@dbback SQL]$ cat $PGLEGU/SQL/standby_recover.sql
    connect sys/password as sysdba
    set trimspool on linesize 200 head off feedback off sqlprompt "--" verify off
    spool &1/SQL/recover.sql
    select 'connect sys/password as sysdba'||chr(10)||
    'set autorecovery on'||chr(10)||
    'recover database until time '''||
    to_char(sysdate - 1/(24*4),'YYYY-MM-DD:HH24:MI:SS')||''' using backup controlfile;'||chr(10)||
    'exit;' from dual;
    spool off
    exit
    the resul in recover.sql is :
    connect sys/password as sysdba
    set autorecovery on
    recover database until time '2010-04-01:16:49:05' using backup controlfile;
    exit;

    I think your database is not going in begin backup mode...
    this is my standby database server Pratap is there any method to check backup mode .
    Thanks

Maybe you are looking for
