Physical Standby -- Automate Startup under Windows

I've created a physical standby using 9i on Win2003. It's working fine, but it won't come up automatically when the machine reboots. I've used ORADIM to create the service, and I can see in the registry that ORA_<sid>_AUTOSTART is set to TRUE, but after the machine reboots I have to manually:
SQL> alter database mount standby database;
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database disconnect;
Apparently the problem is that the service is trying to open the database normally, not realizing that special commands need to be run to start a physical standby.
I want the whole standby site to come up and run properly when the machine reboots. How can I set this up?

Hi,
You may try the following:
modify the oracle service using oradim -edit starttype=service
place your sql commands in a sql file, wrap it with a batch file and ask your NT administrator to run(prepare a script) the batch file immediately after startup.
You sql file :
alter database mount standby database;
alter database recover managed standby database disconnect;
your batch file :
set oracle_sid=<sid_here>
sqlplus sys/pwd @SQLScript.sql

11g1 automatic startup under Fedora 9 Linux quit working

11g1 automatic startup under Fedora 9 Linux worked for months
Now I have to start 11g1 manually!

on boot page, the usual command that starts 11g1 just zips on by
I've looked in the boot messages to no avail. Still looking.
Has to be a kernel change because I've lect 11g1 alone for months

I did a www.ask.com for "dbstart pam.d" and got the answer.
pam.d and SELINUX are very complex.
I am still wary of lurking problems!

Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended freezes on startup under Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit - No splash screen

I installed my licensed copy of Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended today as part of my install a bunch of software after a reinstall of Windows (due to viruses). I did a completely fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. I've used Photoshop CS3 Extended for quite a while now so I know what to expect on startup but it was previously installed under Windows XP Professional (32-bit). Figured I would give Windows 7 a chance this time around.
Google searches aren't turning up anything. When I attempt to start the application, I get a window with the title "Adobe Photoshop CS3" (no "Extended" - I seem to recall the title changes later) and the toolbar appears. However, no splash screen appears and no Product Activation wizard appears - the application simply freezes on an empty frame and a toolbar. I've tried running Photoshop as Administrator (right-click, "Run As Administrator"), but nothing changed there. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling. I tried upgrading to CS3 10.0.1. Nothing works. The application simply freezes before it gets anywhere.
I tried calling Adobe Support since this technically falls under installation issues but their phone support systems are down today. Go figure.
Edit: I hooked into Photoshop with the Visual Studio debugger and every single thread is executing some variation of WaitForSingleObject() or WaitForMultipleObjects(). The main thread is "executing" somewhere in AdobeLM_libFNP.dll (at address 09619d81 - if I had debugging symbols for CS3, I could provide a function). There are nine threads "running" at the point the freeze occurs - but all of them are technically suspended due to the functions they are executing - and one thread is in a suspended state.

And, according to the Event Viewer, the "Binary" data translates to a zero-terminated Unicode string of "Cross-thread".
My Visual Studio analysis was far more informative. All threads are hung inside of WaitForSingleObject() and WaitForMultipleObjects() calls and the DLL in question appears to be FlexNet-related. I did forget to mention that I also even manually started the FlexNet service in case, for some strange reason, Photoshop was waiting for it to start. That also did not work.
(And there is nothing in the Action Center control panel either despite the message saying there might be more information there.)
Edit: The timestamp above might be a little odd-looking. I didn't originally see anything in Event Viewer until I clicked the first button to send an Error Report. Mostly I just skipped that part of killing a process.

Create a physical standby for Rac on Windows and raw devices

Hi buddies:
I need to create a Physical standby database for a 2 node RAC cluster on Windows, that is using RAW devices.
Can someone of you suggest me a note to follow in order to achive this, i can not find to much information about how to do this.
I guess that the best option would be to use RMAN to do this, but as i said before i havent found too much information.
I would really appreciate your help.
Kind regards
MQ

In this case the standby should be created as a single instance on regular files.
Do i have to specify something different in the duplicate rman command to specify that the standby database will be a single instance?
Thanks for your help

Some app not automatic startup when windows start.?

I use dell touchpad but it don't automatic start when windows start. I allway manual open app.

In this build, when you are set to use the Start Screen instead of the Start Menu, apps in the "Run" area of the registry that normally automatically start will not start. If you switch back to the Start Menu, they will start. I have not seen
any documentation about this change so I am hoping it is just a bug at this point.

RMAN question concerning Physical Standby

We have a database in a two-server Dataguard environment. We use RMAN to backup up the Primary database (on the server CORE), but we do not backup the Physical Standby (this was recommended by our vendor).
Once a month, I switchover the Primary database (on the server CORE) over to the Physical Standby database (which is on the server DG). I apply Linux patches to the CORE server and reboot. I then bring up the database as Physical Standby (using "startup nomount", followed by "alter database mount standby database" and then "alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session"), and then I do a switchover and make it the Primary again.
My question is, after I bring up the database on the server CORE as a Physical Standby, and before I do a switchover to make it the Primary again, can I use RMAN to run a "restore database validate" to see if my backups are currently valid, or would this not give me the expected results since I am the Physical Standby?
Thanks in advance.

You should have any problem. What you're doing is similar to a a "rolling upgrade". When your physical to production environment make sure put the dest_2 in defer. Is your current physical standby works now? If so, there's problem.

How to make a physical standby DB mounted automatically on startup of a PC?

Hi,
I have a physical standby DB 10.2 on a PC under windows XP. This is a Data Guard configuation. If the PC reboot, I would like the DB to start mount automatically. After that, the Data guard will automatically pout the DB in recovery mode.
I have tried this approach :
start automatically the DB (using ORADIM to configure the service).
Unfortunately when this happens, the database is OPEN which is not the right mode. It should be "mounted".
How to do ?
Thank you for your kind help.
Christian

These solutions only work until the database fails over or switches over. To properly implement this you need to find out the database role:
select database_role from v$database;
If it is a PRIMARY then you want to open the database otherwise you want to mount it. Oracle recommends (Doc ID 883196.1) using Data Guard Broker to accomplish this. DGMGRL starts the database according to the database_role.
On Windows:
1. Set ORA_SID_AUTOSTART to false in the Windows registry.
2. Schedule a batch job to perform the following when the server is started:
set ORACLE_SID=<sid of database>
dgmgrl / "startup"

9iAS R2 Automatic Startup at Boot time on Windows

How to successfully start the 9iAS R2 Application Server at boot time.
Many of you are still struggling with the problem of 9iAS R2 not automatically starting up properly when your system is restarted. I've been fighting this issue for several weeks and have found the problems, and pitfalls, involved with fixing it. It really is a race condition of things trying to start up before something it depends on is fully functioning, or some application starting out of sequence.
There is a bug associated with this problem; BUG 2511270 ( 9IASV2 Need Ability to Restart All Components in Instance After a Reboot). The bug report itself has very little useful information in it other than to say it doesn't work, and manually starting the components is the only known fix. If you're like me. this isn't a good enough answer.
Your mileage may vary.
My configuration has a 9.2.0.1 customer database, and a 9.0.1.3.1 infrastructure database that is also the application server database, including portals, all installed on the same system which is a Pentium 4, Windows 2000 machine, with 1.5GB of memory. I only use a single LISTENER, which runs out of the 9.2 DB ORACLE_HOME.
Chapter 5 (Starting and Stopping the Application Server) of the Oracle9i Application Server Administrator's Guide shows all of the commands necessary, in the proper order, to manually start the infrastructure and application server. Unfortunately, there is also some incorrect information in this document.
Part 1c in the section Starting an Infrastructure Using Commands on Windows, using SQLPlus to connect to and start the database, does not work unless oracle.exe is already running (which means that you recently shutdown the database by command, not with "services>stop"). If your system is rebooting, oracle.exe is not running. This exact same information is documented in the Database Administrators Guide, Chapter 4, Starting a Database. If you don't have these manuals handy the offending commands are as follows:
ORACLE_HOME\bin\sqlplus /nologsql> connect sys/password_for_sys as sysdba
sql> startup
sql> quit
Since we can't put some variant of the above in a command script to manually start the databases and wait for it to open, the only option left is to let the databases come up in "automatic" mode when the system boots, and run the remaining commands when they are open. If your system is like mine, that can take several minutes, even after you've logged on and gotten your first cup of coffee.
If you set up a command script to run at startup, you don't have any control over when the script gets run, more than likely, in this case, before the databases are open. Unfortunately, Microsoft does not have anything resembling a sleep (timer, wait, delay, etc) command that can be used in a script. There may be something somewhere, but I can't find it. So I wrote one in Perl, which does have a sleep command. You can use anything you have available to you that will function as needed. We obtained our Perl distribution from http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Perl.
The next issue has to do with starting the Oracle Internet Directory. The documentation shows two commands to execute, but in reality, only the first one is required, it automatically takes care of the second one. Refer to the command file below for the correct one.
The last issue deals with running the dcmctl commands. If you run these commands one at a time in a command window, you won't notice anything askew. If you run them, as shown, in a script, they will stop execution of the script when they complete, and there will be no indication that anything wrong has happened. The CMD.exe still exists, it just isn't running. They must be run in there own cmd command as shown below.
Now, let's review the steps necessary to get all this to work.
Put the two scripts shown below in there target directories and edit any necessary changes for your system.
In Start>Settings>Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Services set the OracleServiceSID's and the OracleOraHomeTNSListener to Automatic Startup Type. All other Oracle* services should be set to Manual.
In Start>Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Scheduled Tasks double click on the Add Scheduled Task item,
select Next,
Browse to where your startup script resides,
double click the file name,
select "When my computer starts",
select Next,
Enter a user name and password (that has ORA_DBA privileges)
select Next, then Finish.
Uncomment the first exit in the iasStartup.cmd script.
Reboot your system.
Compare the database open time stamp in each database alert log to the time recorded in the iasStartup.log file to determine you first time delay. Add 10-20 seconds or more to this difference just to be safe. If you add services at a later time, this number may need to be increased.
Edit the iasStartup.cmd file to include this time delay for the first sleep command and comment out the first exit command.
Reboot your system.
After several minutes, all infrastructure and application server processes should be up and running. You can check this in several ways; Look at the log file to see if all commands were run, Look at the Windows Task Manager to see if all expected tasks are running, Look at Services to see what is running. Finally, you can look at the Infrastructure Enterprise Manager Website and click on each instance to determine the current status of each system component. On mine, the component Portal:portal:7779 always shows as down but in reality it is functioning.
The following command script only starts the minimum set of processes that I require. Your requirements may be different so refer to the documentation for additional commands.
Enjoy.

I cannot get iTunes to automatically launch at startup in Windows 7. I need it to do this so my Apple TV 'finds' my Music Library, which is stored on an external hard-drive, connected to my Windows 7 PC. Anyone know how I do this? I cannot seem to find anything on Google, which is surprising.

Thanks

The iTunes application should be installed on the system drive. You may need to repair iTunes to fix that error regarding a missing .exe.

Under Windows 7 - Fingerprint Reader Ignored After Standby Resume

I thought this was perhaps a platform-specific issue. But both on my ThinkPad T61 running Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit and my new ThinkPad T510 running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit, whenever I resume from standby, any finger swipe against the fingerprint reader is ignored.
Note - I am not using the rather large Lenovo fingerprint driver package because I don't want the bloat. Just want a very basic, Ctrl+Alt+Delete password prompt replacement.
Does the "Registry patch to change IDLE IRP timing by Fingerprint reader driver for Windows Vista" need to be installed under Windows 7 (http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-67245)?

i didn't know the lenovo fingerprint driver package was more than just a very basic, Ctrl+Alt+Delete password prompt replacement? (at least not that i noticed)

Starting Physically Standby Database in Mount Mode

Hi All
I have configured Data Guard using Oracle 10g 10.2.0.4.0 (64 bits) on Windows 2008 Server (64 bits) Release 2 Enterprise.
Data guard configuration was OK as the message from "Enable Configuration DG1" was "SUCCESS" for both
Primary and Standby Database. I have also set both Databases and TNS to start Automatically whenever Windows Starts.
The Problem is as long as the Standby Server is running, there is No issue.
But when we Restarts the Backup Server, Physically Standby Database is Started and TNS is also Started,
but Archives are not received until I physically do the following steps so that it can received the Archives.
SQL> startup nomount;
SQL> alter database mount standby database;
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;
Is there a way to start Physically Standby Database in Mount mode when windows started.

Hi Mihael
I have created 2 files. 1 Bat file 2nd sql file which contains all commands as written above.
When I execute start.bat file
1. set ORACLE_HOME=C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1
2. set ORACLE_SID=UMISBK
3. sqlplus / [email protected]
1 & 2 executed properly. At 3 it just display SQL help for login as shown below.
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
Copyright (c) 1982, 2007, Oracle. All Rights Reserved.
Usage 1: sqlplus -H | -V
    -H             Displays the SQL*Plus version and the usage help.
    -V             Displays the SQL*Plus version.
Usage 2: sqlplus [ [<option>] [<logon>] [<start>] ]
<option> is: [-C <version>] [-L] [-M "<options>"] [-R <level>] [-S]
It Did Not execute start.sql file to excute sql commands.

Implementation of ORACLE9i RMAN physical standby database`

Sir's,
How to implement RMAN in the physical standby database

Hi Ashu Goel,
Can u let me know any thing abot the prerequistw of implementation with the configuration settings of the above said.If I understand you correctly you want to use rman to backup an already existing dataguard setup.
Doing this would be very similar as a normal rman backup with the limitation you have to stop the recovery during the backup window and run the backup in mount mode.
To make a consistent backup of the standby database, make sure that the last shutdown of the standby database was clean and that it was not placed in recovery mode after that time, and then mount the control file. For example:
sqlplus SYS/oracle@sbdb1 <<EOF
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
STARTUP NOMMOUNT PFILE=initSTANDBY.ora
ALTER DATABASE MOUNT STANDBY DATABASE;
EOF
You can back up the standby database when it is in any other mode, but the backups will be inconsistent.
Start RMAN and connect to the standby database with the TARGET keyword (not the AUXILIARY keyword) and the recovery catalog database. You must be connected to the recovery catalog. For example, enter:
% rman TARGET SYS/oracle@sbdb1 CATALOG rman/cat@catdb
If do not have automatic channels configured, then manually allocate one or more channels of type DISK or sbt. Note that you are connected to the standby host, so the backups are made by server sessions on the standby (not the primary) host.
This example backs up all the standby datafiles as well as the control file and archived logs by using automatic channels:
BACKUP DATABASE PLUS ARCHIVELOG;

Error while trying to open physical standby database - (DATA GUARD)

Hi Everyone,
I have problems in opening the database of the physical standby in read- write mode/ read only mode. I have a primary server which is running on 2 node RAC and the standby on a seperate single server being used as DR. I recently got this server and my aim was to isolate the standby server from primary server and perform few test. As it has never been tested even once.
Primary Database spec: (2 Node Rac on ASM)
Oracle Version : 10.2.0.3.0
O/s : HP-UX B.11.23
Standby Database spec: (Single Node)
Oracle Version : 10.2.0.3.0
O/s: HP-UX db01 B.11.23
Error:
alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database open

Steps tried so far:
Changed log_archive_dest_2 = DEFER on both the primary nodes
Standby :
startup nomount
alter database mount standby database;
alter database recover managed standby database disconnect;
alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
alter database open/readonly (tried both)
Same error.
