Firstly you can use "*select sequence#,first_time,next_time from v$archived_log order by sequence#;"* command in mount stage itself.No need to open the standby database in ready only mode.
No rows selected in mount stage also.
The V$ARCHIVED_LOG fixed view on the physical standby database shows all the archived redo log files received from the primary database.
sql> select * from v$archived_log;
no rows selected.
and No archived logs received from primary database to physical standby . i think here i wrongly configure parameter file.
sql> RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION; -- > start Redo Apply
When you do log switch on the primary are the archive logs getting transferred to the standby database???Is there some error in the alert log file in the primary database.
No..

  • 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 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:

        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.

  • Got RMAN error when running RMAN backup of archivelogs on physical standby database

    Got below error when running RMAN backup of datafiles and archivelogs on physical standby database.
    RMAN-06820: WARNING: failed to archive current log at primary database
    ORACLE error from target database:
    ORA-17629: Cannot connect to the remote database server
    ORA-17627: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    Could anyone help me? Thanks,

    Hello;
    When you connect RMAN to the source database as TARGET you must specify a password even if RMAN uses operating system authentication.
    So the errors ORA-17627 and ORA-00942 appear to be cause and effect.
    What version of Oracle?  ( 11.2.0.4 according to the tag )
    Can you post your backup script?
    Best Regards
    mseberg
    Update
    According to :
    Database Error Messages 11g Release 2 (11.2) E17766-03
    RMAN-06820: WARNING: failed to archive current log at primary database
    Cause: An attempt to switch the archived log at the primary database failed.
    So I would check my Primary alert log for an issue.

  • Standby database error

    I am using oracle 10.2.0.4.0 on windows 2003 server. I created a physical standby database successfully.
    On standby database, I fired the following query
    SELECT SEQUENCE#, FIRST_TIME, NEXT_TIME FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG ORDER BY SEQUENCE#
    SEQUENCE# FIRST_TIM NEXT_TIME
    10715 02-AUG-10 02-AUG-10

    hi
    I myself have found the solution , when I recover the standby database
    it do recovery but at the end of recovery it raise the error(RMAN-06054: media recovery requesting unknown log: thread 1
    seq 118 lowscn 1392700) but if I begain redo apply before open the database
    and I wait till all redo apply process start and communication between the
    standby database and the primary database start, then I can
    open the standby database and no error will raise
    but if befor restarting redo apply I open the database I'll recieve the
    ORA-01152: file 1 was not restored from a sufficiently old backup
    ORA-01110: data file 1: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/sari/system01.dbf' error
    thanks

  • Problem creating physical Standby database with RMAN

    Hi All
    I am trying to learn oracle dataguard and as part of the process learning creating standby database.
    Platform : Sun-Fire-V250 Sparc, Solaris 10
    Database Version - Oracle 11R2
    I am creating standby database on same server, so directory structure is different.
    Following the instructions on Oracle site I managed to create a functional physical standby database. But I am not able to create standby database using RMAN. These are the steps that I followed-
    1.Set up all necessary parameters on primary database as done while creating physical standby database manually, eg setting force logging, creating standby logs etc.
    2.Edited parameter file on primary database as done while creating manual pysical standby database creation. Some of the changes done are-
    On Primary Database:
    *.FAL_CLIENT='orcl11020' #Primary database unique name
    *.FAL_SERVER='stdby_11' #Standby database unique name
    db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020'
    log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem'
    standby_file_management=auto
    *.log_archive_config='DG_CONFIG=(orcl11020,stdby_11)'
    *.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11020/archivelog
    VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=orcl11020'
    *.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=stdby_11 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
    *.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_1='ENABLE'
    *.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2='ENABLE'
    *.LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT='%t_%s_%r.arc'
    *.LOG_ARCHIVE_MAX_PROCESSES=30
    Copied same pfile for standby database and modified following-
    *.control_files='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl','/<dir>/fra_stdby/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl'
    *.db_name='orcl1102'
    *.db_unique_name='stdby_11'
    *.FAL_CLIENT='stdby_11'
    *.FAL_SERVER='orcl11020'
    db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11'
    log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem'
    standby_file_management=auto
    *.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/fra_stdby/STDBY_11/archivelog
    VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
    *.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=orcl11020 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE)
    db_unique_name=orcl11020'
    3. Add relevant information in tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files and then restart listener.
    3. Created password file with same credential as primary database.
    4.Up-to-date RMAN backup of primary database available.
    5.Create standby controlfile with rman
    While primary database s open (I tried with primary database in mount mode as well)-
    $>rman catalog rman/paswd@rman target /
    RMAN> BACKUP CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY;
    6. Open a new terminal and startup standby database in nomount mode using parameter file created -
    $>ORACLE_SID=stdby_11
    $>export ORACLE_SID
    $>sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL>STARTUP NOMOUNT pfile='<location/initfilename.ora'
    SQL>quit
    $> rman AUXILIARY / target sys/passwd@orcl11020 catalog rman/passwd@rman
    RMAN>DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY DORECOVER;
    RMAN finishes without error but archive logs are not being tranported. Looking at the log, following caught my eye-
    Error 1017 received logging on to the standby
    Check that the primary and standby are using a password file
    and remote_login_passwordfile is set to SHARED or EXCLUSIVE,
    and that the SYS password is same in the password files.
    returning error ORA-16191
    FAL[client, ARC2]: Error 16191 connecting to orcl11020 for fetching gap sequence
    Errors in file /<>dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:

    So on both primary and standby I confirmed
    SQL> show parameter remote_login_passwordfile
    NAME TYPE VALUE
    remote_login_passwordfile string EXCLUSIVE
    To make double sure that password files are same, I shutdown both databases, delete password files and recreated with same credentials.
    Password files are called - orapworcl11020 and orapwstdby_11
    Can someone guide me where thisngs are going wrong here please.

    Not sure if I understood it clearly.
    SELECT * FROM V$ARCHIVE_GAP;
    returns no rows so there is no gap.
    But could you please explain me the result of the previous query. To catch up again, on standby when I check
    SELECT SEQUENCE#,APPLIED FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG
    SEQUENCE# APPLIED
    75 NO
    74 NO
    76 NO
    77 NO
    I understand that though archive files have been copied across but they are not applied yet.
    On primary when I give your query -
    SELECT name as STANDBY,SEQUENCE#,applied, completion_time
    2 FROM v$archived_log
    3 where dest_id=2
    4 and sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80;
    I get -
    STANDBY SEQUENCE# APPLIED COMPLETIO
    stdby_11 74 YES 28-JUN-11

    I have intentionally given
    sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80
    because I know in the current incarnaion of the database, max sequence is 78.
    So my understanding is, the rows between 28-29 June are from previous incarnation, correct me if I am wrong
    Archive files of the current incarnation, since I successfully created standby database are shipped but yet to be applied - am I right?
    Then my final question is, when will these archives be applied to standby database?
    I am sorry to ask too many questions but I am just trying to understand how it all works.
    Thanks for your help again

  • Create ONLINE logfile in physical standby database

    We have created a physical standby database with rman duplicate command on a remote server
    "duplicate target database for standby dorecover nofilenamecheck"
    When I see the standby server...Online logfiles are not created however its relevant entries are there in V$LOG and V$LOGFILE views.
    I guess it is the default behaviour of duplicate command in RMAN and we can not specify LOGFILE clause when we create standby database.
    Now the problem is we could not drop the online logfile on standby database since it's status is "CURRENT", "ACTIVE".
    Since the ONLINE LOGFILE are not actually created , "ALTER DATABASE CLEAR LOGFILE GROUP " command returns with error as it could not find the file in the server.
    So How we can drop the current/active online logfile and add new ones in standby db?

    I'm assuming you have physical standby. Here are step I did in the past.
    1) create a backup control file
    2) bring the database back using the "recreate control file" it the trace file BUT you need to remove or comment out the line that has the corrupt or missing redo log file. And don't forget to add the tempfile after you recreate the controlfile
    example:
    alter database backup controlfile to trace;
    STARTUP NOMOUNT
    CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "ORCL" NORESETLOGS FORCE LOGGING ARCHIVELOG
    MAXLOGFILES 16
    MAXLOGMEMBERS 3
    MAXDATAFILES 100
    MAXINSTANCES 8
    MAXLOGHISTORY 292
    LOGFILE
    GROUP 1 '/oracledata/orcl/redo01.log' SIZE 200M,
    GROUP 2 '/oracledata/orcl/redo02.log' SIZE 200M,
    GROUP 3 '/oracledata/orcl/redo03.log' SIZE 200M,
    # GROUP 3 '/oracledata/orcl/redo03.log' SIZE 200M
    -- STANDBY LOGFILE
    -- GROUP 10 '/oracledata/orcl/redostdby04.log' SIZE 200M,
    -- GROUP 11 '/oracledata/orcl/redostdby05.log' SIZE 200M
    DATAFILE
    '/oracledata/orcl/system01.dbf',
    '/oracledata/orcl/undotbs01.dbf',
    '/oracledata/orcl/sysaux01.dbf',
    '/oracledata/orcl/users01.dbf'
    CHARACTER SET WE8ISO8859P1
    If you just want to add the standby redo log then using this command.
    alter database add standby logfile
    '/<your_path>/redostdby01.log' size 200M reuse,

    HI CKPT,
    Thanks for the reply. All the Archives from primary are transferred to the standby by RFS. Also i tried to register the log files manually even but it says already registered. They are no errors in the primary instance alert log file. Please find the log

  • How to open a "manual" Physical standby database in read/write mode

    Hi,
    I am running Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production Standard Edition on Linux version 2.6.9-42.0.8.ELsmp ([email protected]) (gcc version 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-3))
    I've created a physical standby database, but since I am running Standard Edition, I am not using the DataGuard features. I use the rsync utility to copy over the archivelogs to the standby database, and I apply them periodically to the standby database.
    The standby database is started this way :
    startup nomount pfile='/u01/oradata/orcl/initorcl.stdby';
    alter database mount standby database;
    Everything runs perfectly fine, I can do "alter database open read only" and then I can do selects into tables to confirm that everything is up to date.
    The thing is, if I shutdown immediate the database, then do just startup :
    shutdown immediate;
    startup;
    The database opens with no error messages, but is still in read-only mode...
    I read that the default behavior for a standby database is to open read-only, like I am experiencing, but I would like to know what is the right way to open it correctly in read-write mode (I understand that after that, my standby will not be standby anymore and that I will have to recreate my standby database).
    Thanks,
    Mat

    Hello,
    There're features which allows you to open a Standby database in Read/Write mode but for all I know
    it needs Entreprise Edition.
    In Enterprise Edition you can use Logical Standby database. More over, for Physical standby there's
    a way by using flashback database so as to rolling backward the database and avoiding to recreate
    the Standby.
    In Standard Edition I'm afraid that you'll have to recreate your Standby database.
    Best regards,
    Jean-Valentin

  • Physical standby database standby redo log problem

    Hello
    We have a physical standby database , I've created some standby redo log files but my problem is that they aren't used,
    their status in v$stanby_log view is UNASSIGNED
    and I see this message (ORA-16086: standby database does not contain available standby log files) in primary database alert_log file
    while when I run "alter system switch logfile" in the primary database it transfer redo logs to the physsical standby database
    and archive log file will be created in standby database
    I've even recreated the standby redo log files and I added new ones to them but the problem wasn't solved
    Do you know what is problem ?

    on primary get max(sequence#) & get max(sequence#) of standby using db link and compare both if the gap differene is more than 10 send a mail.
    Any suggestions will be really helpful

    If you try to connect any users other than SYS in standby the error is very much expected. Of course you can connect with other users if you open database in OPEN READ ONLY mode, from 11gRx you can connect with other users even MRP is running if you are using ADG(active Data Guard licensed) .
    I like to know, what you want to achieve by creating DB Link on physical standby database? Which is not allowed.
    Database version is 10.2 standard edition

    Any suggestions will be really helpfulNote:- Standard edition, Data Guard not enabled.
    To use this you should use Oracle Net Service, you no need of DB Links.
    Ex:- sqlplus sys/****@standby as sysdba
    Here standby refers to Oracle net service, Where you will have entries in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora file.

  • 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.

  • Questions regarding creating a physical standby database in 10gR2

    I'm setting up a physical standby database in a test environment using two windows 2003 servers. I was wondering if someone could answer a few questions I'm not too clear on. I've been thru the data guard manual and as much online information as i can find. I may have it working but wanted to post some things I'm not sure I did quite right.
    My tnsnames.ora files.
    On my primary database server:
    # tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: F:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\NETWORK\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora
    # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
    PRIMARY =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = SERVER1)(PORT = 1521))

    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = PRIMARY.MYDOMAIN.com)
    STANDBY =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = SERVER2)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = STANDBY.MYDOMAIN.com)
    On my physical standby database server:
    # tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: f:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\NETWORK\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora
    # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
    STANDBY =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = SERVER2)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = STANDBY.MYDOMAIN.com)
    PRIMARY =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = SERVER1)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = PRIMARY.MYDOMAIN.com)
    My Listener.ora files:
    On my primary database server:
    # listener.ora Network Configuration File: F:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\NETWORK\ADMIN\listener.ora
    # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
    (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
    (GLOBAL_DBNAME = PRIMARY.MYDOMAIN.com)
    (ORACLE_HOME = f:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1)
    (SID_NAME = primary)
    LISTENER =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server1.mydomain.com)(PORT = 1521))
    On my physical standby database server:
    # listener.ora Network Configuration File: f:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\NETWORK\ADMIN\listener.ora
    # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
    (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
    (GLOBAL_DBNAME = standby.mydomain.com)
    (ORACLE_HOME = f:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1)
    (SID_NAME = standby)
    LISTENER =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = sever2.mydomain.com)(PORT = 1521))
    The next item I'm not sure about is after creating the control file for standby use.
    One the primary server I created it using:
    alter database create standby controlfile as 'sbcontrol01.ctl';
    I copied the primary database pfile I had created earlier to the standby server, renamed it and edited it.
    Initially I left the CONTROL_FILES= parameter pointing to the control01.ctl, control02.ctl and control03.ctl that I restored. But I was getting the error ORA-01665: control file is not a standby control file
    So I copied the sbcontrol01.ctl to sbcontrol02 and sbcontrol03.ctl and pointed the CONTROL_FILES= parameter at them.
    The error went away and the database came up. I still need to test it some more but wanted to see if what i did was correct or a fluke.
    Edited by: tjohnson on Mar 23, 2009 2:26 PM

    If in the primary I had control files named control01, control02 and control03 would I have been able to create a standby controlfile called control01.ctl or would I have had to name it something else like I did (sbcontrol01.ctl) and rename it to control01.ctl once I got it over to the standby database server?Suppose you have the primary database control file in C:\oracle\primary\control location with names control01.ctl and control02.ctl. Then also you can create a standby controlfile with control01.ctl and control02.ctl , but then the location to be created must be different.You can create it in C:\oracle\primary location and then transfer to the specified location mentioed in the pfile of the standby database and mount the standby database.
    But saying this i would suggested to keep the name different from control01.ctl as far as naming conventions are followed.It might confuse someoe whether its a primary database controlfe or a standby database controlfile.Usally primary database controlfile are named control01.ctl , coltrol02.ctl etc and for standby many do prefer keeping standby01.ctl, standby02.ctl.Thats just for for understanding.

  • Physical standby database Version 11g Creation over grid control 10g

    We are useing oracale 11g enterprise edition and want to create a physical standby database on another machine:
    On primary host we've installed "standard database" and turned on archive log mode over em.
    On the standby host we've installed only oracle without a database and without a listener.
    On a third machine we've installed grid control and registered the primary and standby hosts. Using EM with Data Grid I'm attempting to create a Physical Standby on standby host. Everything is working except for the last part as noted here:

    What mean's in this case:

    Cause: An incomplete recovery session was started, but an insufficient number of redo logs were applied to make the database consistent. This file is still in the future of the last redo log applied. The most likely cause of this message is forgetting to restore the file from backup before doing incomplete recovery.
    Action: Apply additional redo log files until the database is consistent or restore the datafiles from an older backup and repeat recovery."

    Thanks for your immediate reply,
    but there's a problem: We don't create the standby database manually. The creation is done by data guard over grid control. And the "automatic" creation stopps at this point.
    Unfortunatly we don't know, wich steps of a manuall standby database creation are done and wich steps are not done at this point.
    The oracle documentation (for release 11g) to create a manuall standby database is "B28294-02". But there's no step 5 "alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session". Do you mean step 4 of chapter 3.2.6?
    Is there no way, to create a standby database automatically over grid control? Or do we have to do something else before creating the physical standby database? Perhaps we have to create a full backup after switching to archive log mode?
