Oracle 10g dataguard Connect-time failover Parameter 15 minutes

Hello,
we running a system with DataGuard in Maximum Availability protection mode and one physical Standby Database. There are two connections between primary and standby. I configured listener and tnsnames to perform a Connect-time failover in case one connection is down. In first place it seemed to work fine but since it has happened that the primary always hangs for exactly 15 minutes until the failover is performed. (ALL redologs need archiving)
I think this must be the default value of a Parameter but reading docs for hours I can't find it.
Can anybody help me?
Best regards
Fritz

It's like this. The connection failover I'm talking about is only between the primary database and standby database. I have two connections between them. That makes two addresses for the service (servicetostandby) specified in the log_archive_dest used by dataguard. In my case the log_archive_dest Paramater looks like this:
log_archive_dest_3 = 'SERVICE servicetostandby OPTIONAL LGWR SY
NC AFFIRM VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LO
GFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) DB_UNIQUE
NAME=standby REOPEN=10 NETTIME
OUT=9'
The tnsnames.ora entry looks like this:
servicetostandby =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = address1)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = address2)(PORT = 1521))
(FAILOVER=true)
(LOAD_BALANCE=false)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = standby)
So if either address1 or address2 is down dataguard should use the other address to connect to the standby database.
Maybe because of the Maximum Availability protection mode the primary database does not perform if the standby database is not available. I'm not sure about that. But fact is that if I power off the standby database, the primary database hangs only for 9 seconds. That's specified in the net_time_out attribut of the log_archive_dest Parameter. So I'm quite sure that something in the oracle net service causes the problem.
With the "primary hangs" I mean: After the used connection (say address1) went down the redologfiles of the primary database get filled and then it stops for 15 minutes. The messages in the alert.log:
Thread 1 cannot allocate new log, sequence 1304
All online logs needed archiving
After 15 minutes the connection via address2 is established and everything works fine.
I hope I made myself clear this time and didn't confuse you totally.

  • CONNECT -TIME FAILOVER ERROR IN ORACLE 10G ENTERPRISE MANAGER

    Hi All,
    Please can anyone explain why I am getting this error and how to fix it?
    I was trying this exercise to create a backup LISTENER to support a connect-time failover in Enterprise manager.The steps were .1)I clicked the Listener's link on Database control page.2)Next I clicked the Net Services Administration link.3)I selected listeners from the Administer drop-down list and clicked Go.
    I received the ERROR message that "Listener administration cannot be performed, as this Oracle Home
    "/opt/oracle/DB10g" is not a server installation.
    Is this normal?
    What can I do to fix it?Please help!
    Thanks

    you are trying to start the listener on the machine that has enterprise manager installed.
    Listener executable is available with oracle database software install( enterprise or otherwise).
    You will have to pick the listener on a database software install box to configure it

    Hello;
    I would review this document :
    http://uhesse.com/2009/08/19/connect-time-failover-transparent-application-failover-for-data-guard/
    The ORA-1033 hints you are trying to connect to the database in the wrong role. There's a trigger and some additional work which can prevent this.
    Uwe's document should explain all.
    The "SQL*Plus: Release 9.0.1.0.1 - Production on Fri Jun 22 17:38" is very odd. I would expect you would being using the client on the server is this not the case?
    DBMS_SERVICE lets you define something like this :
    ernie =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = primary.server)(PORT = 1521))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = standby.server)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = ernie)
    Check out "CREATE_SERVICE Procedure" here :

  • MS Visual Studio 2005 + Oracle 10g = Cannot connect to ODBC error: 12154

    Hi there!
    I've read so many threads of same kind of problems but always some key elements seems to be missing so I cannot solve my problem with the solutions in those threads. So, I'll do my own.
    Our environment is...
    We have Oracle 8 database with all the data that we have. Now we have our new server, SQL Server 2005 installed and I am trying to transfer data from Oracle to SQL using MS Visual Studio 2005 using available ODBC drivers. System is Windows 2003 64Bit on intel based hardware.
    Current installations and settings
    I have installed Oracle 10g 32bit and 64bit to separate foldes. Then I made tnsnames and sqlnet files with right settings to specified folders and tested connection with tnsping <servername> command.
    Both, 64bit and 32bit connections are working. (Used 32bit CMD for 32bit connection test)
    ODBC
    I added Microsoft ODBC for Oracle as 32bit driver and Oracle 10g driver for 64bit environment as ODBC driver.
    Both environments uses same ODBC names: Myserver and Mytestserver
    Debug
    First, when I only had 64bit version of ODBC, I had a warning which said that I am using incompatible version of ODBC driver. Then I read from here that I can install 32bit client also and use drivers from that on 32bit ODBC environment and get rid of that message.
    Tried to connect Oracle DB with SQL-Plus and it works.
    Visual studio 2005 SP2
    I have tried to use .Net Providers/Oracle Client dataprovider and .Net Providers for OleDB/Microsoft Old DB for Oracle and also .Net Providers for OldDB/Oracle provider for OldDB
    Frist two gives me an error: ORA-12154 TNS: Could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    Last one says that OraOldDB.oracle.1 is not registered on local machine
    I have absolutily no idea what I can try next?
    Anyone who has more ideas? Suggest anything. I might have tried that already, but give a shot anyway. :)

    I am installing oracle 10g on Solaris 10.
    I have a warning on kernel parameter missing (shminfo_shmmax for example) during the system check.
    I understood that with the 10 version of solaris these parameters are replaced by ressources control and I have checked them. They are correctly setted.
    Need I do something before continue the install to release the warning or can I bypass this issue and continue the install as I have no warning ?
    Thanks for your answers.
    Sorry for my english.

    You are right. Since Solaris 10 kernel parameters settings in /etc/system is obsolete and some parameters are deprecated.
    The steps how to configure required parameters you can find in my paper (step #1.): http://ivan.kartik.sk/oracle/install_ora10gR2_solaris.html
    I bypass this issue and continue the install as I have no warning You can safely bypass this issue during installation process but you should set these parameters after installation.

    Hi Linc,
    Thank you for yout suggestion.
    Export the import makes sense. Do you know of any "How to..." articles for exporting from Tiger?
    Thanks again,

  • Oracle 10g Universe Connectivity From 64bit Windows 2003 Server

    Hi,
    Have an existing BO XI 3.1 environment built on a 64 bit Windows 2003 server and
    I'm having problems getting it to communicate with Oracle 10g universes.  Works fine
    with its SQL Server 2005 repository and SQL Server 2005 relational/olap universes, but
    cant seem to get it to work with Oracle.
    Universes work fine on the 32 bit development environment talking to the same Oracle
    database, but when move them to 64 bit testing environment they all fail with
    Oracle ora-12154 errors.
    32 bit Oracle client is installed and can communicate fine with other products using ODBC
    connections from the server - but BO refuses to communicate.
    Any ideas other than reinstalling BO under 'Program Files' rather than 'Program Files (x86)'
    as I've seen some references on the web about this possibly being a problem?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Oracle 32 bit and 64 bit connectivity work fine from the server.  The problem seems to
    relate to bug 3807408 in Oracle 10g that cant handle parentheses in directory names.
    So BO being installed in u2018C:\Program Files (x86)\Business Objectsu2019 causes it to get
    rather annoyed.
    SAP Note 1202730 does cover this, but our DBA's aren't too keen on installing the
    suggested patch.  I'm also not very keen on reinstalling BO in a different directory as
    we've got working production sites that would have to be rebuilt.
    So now investigating whether using the Oracle 11g client will resolve this.
    MSDN forum topic http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/sqlintegrationservices/thread/ab662d63-6385-4f73-b27f-d526048f601f/  gives a pretty good overview of what people have been trying to resolve this.
