Problem when create standby database

hello,
I have two server(NT4.0,SP6) installed Oracle 8i(8.1.6 Enterprise) at the same directory.I want one as the primary database,another one as the standby database.
The two database have the same SID,use SQL*Plus it can access each other.
My operating steps as below:
1.on primary server:
1)connect internal;
2)shutdown immediate;
3)copy all datafiles(*.DBF) to a backup directory;
4)startup
5)alter database create standby controlfile as 'd:\oracle\ora81\ILLDB\standby.ctl'
6)alter system archive log current
2.on standby server:
1)copy all backuped datafile,standby.ctl,all redo log files from primary server to standby server,overwrite all same name files;
2)modify the init.ora,add this parameter:
"standby_archive_dest = "location=D:\Oracle\oradata\ILLDB\archive" ";
3)statup oracle service in Service control manel;
4)run svrmgrl.exe;
5)startup nomount;
6)alter database mount standby database;
then a error message appear:
"ORA-01665 controlfile is not a standby controlfile".
I don't know which step is mistake.Please tell me correct steps.
Thanks

I did face the similar problem while trying to create and startup a clone database for Point in Time Recovery (PITR). The error message is
ORA-01696 controlfile is not a clone controlfile
Are you folks have any idea how do I resolve this problem?? Is there any way to create clone control file??

Configure standby database

hi all;
how many system r required to configure standby database
i m configure standby database in a single(same) system where my primary database already running.if this possible or not
i have configured my standby
but when i start "c:\sqlplus sys@orclstdy as sysdba"
then he create error ora-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
and when i start with "c:\set oracl_sid=orclstdy"
sql>conn as sys/pass as sysdba
connected to an idle instance
sql> startup
ora-02778: Name given for the log directory is invalid
how can solve this problem . please reply

Hi user569791
you can configure standby to multiple destinations(up to 9 different destinations) and it is also possible to configure in same system also.
you need to create standby controlfile for Physical standby database.
check whether the standby instance run as a separate service and whether you
have an relevant entry in tnsnames.ora file. note that the db_name is same for both
sites but only the instance name differs.
Ensure that you have a
1.valid cold backup of datafiles,
2.valid standby controlfile
3.standby init parameters with db_file_name_convert and log_file_name_convert
parameters are valid
4. a special init parameter called lock_name_space need to be given when you configure standby on same site.
check all these condition and Try again.

Configuring Standby database.....but not able to finish it

Friends,
DB: 10.2.0.4
OS: RHEL 4.8
I have done all the preliminary steps in the primary database like...
force logging
archivelog
creating standy redo loo.
etc....as per the documentation....
my problem is what about the standby system not db...i mean the node or os....
i have installed rhel 4.8 and the db 10.2.0.4 ...
In the standby os....am i have to create a db or only the oracle installation is enough....?
anyway...i have to copy all the datafiles and controlfile and pfile from primary os...

thanksIf you just install OS, it wont be enough, you should have control files, data files, standby redo log files.
Then only it can communicated.

How to apply Oracle patch when physical standby database in place

Dear All,
I want to apply Oracle patchset 8 on 10.2.0.5 when physical standby database in place. What are the steps for Primary site and for standby site.
Thanks in advance
Kamran Laeeq

Hi Kamran,
You will not upgrade or patch the standby database by importing offline redologs. On the contrary, there is a procedure to do this. Please note that you will not transitiate the role from standby to primary or startup the database. You will just startup the database by executing "startup mount" and "startup upgrade", during the upgrade. It means that you will not change database role standby to primary and you will be able to continue to the log shipment after the respective upgrade.
But, it is very important that you should stop the log shipment and apply all the offline redologs, before the upgrade. Technically, you can import offline redologs after the upgrade, by changing "compatibility" parameter in oracle, but regarding to my experiences it may cause some problems after you transitiate the role from standby to primary.
In short;
In order to stop log shipment, at the primary site;
alter system set log_archive_dest_state_2=defer;
In order to import all the offline redologs without a delay, at the standby site;
alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
alter database recover managed standby database nodelay disconnect from session;
I hope that I clarified the issue,
Best regards,
Orkun Gedik

This makes no sense. You don't configure a listener nor a tnsnames.ora "in a database".   I hope this is just a language issue and not reflective of a fundamental misunderstanding of how tns works.

The Critical Problems for Creating Standby Database

The Critical Problems for Creating Standby Database:(I want to create a physical standby database on the same system of the primary database)
1. Should I copy all the backup datafiles, standby controlfile and password file to a same directory before the first time to mount the standby database?
2. Before mounting the standby database, Should I change the datafile's name to a new one in the standby controlfile? How to change them?
3. When issuing the command to mount the standby database, should I specify the controlfile's name.(using which controlfile to mount)
These problems are not clearly secified in Oracle documentations.

Can you point us to the Windows specific documentation you refer to?
The parameter DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT should take care of the new mapping for your datafiles (and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT for logs), so you should be able to put them where you want and use the parameter to point Oracle to the correct location. You should not need to change the name in the controlfile.
Place your standby controlfiles where you have the control files defined in your parameter file and Oracle should recofgnise that it is a standby db. You should not need to specify which controlfiles to use (if this is even possible), your CONTROL_FILES init parameter points to them.
Not sure about the password file....my instances are on separate boxes and the password file has the same name on both primary and standby.

You are trying to "orclprd" - is it your primary database? Are you sure that it's open?

The Oracle Solaris Cluster concepts guide has some information on which zone model to choose:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18728_01/html/821-2682/gcbkf.html#scrolltoc
When managing a Solaris zone with the HA Zones agent, the cluster basically regards the non-global zone as a blackbox.
As such you can either start the Oracle database as part of the runlevel/SMF startup of the non-global zone, or you can use the sczsh or sczsmf component and use your own scripts to start, probe and stop the Oracle database.
Usage of the standard HA Oracle data service is not supported in combination with the HA Zones agent.
If you require a more fine grained control of services running in non-global zones, why not setup a zone cluster and then having HA Oracle failover the Oracle database between non-global zones?

'No such host is known' error when configuring Reporting database

Hi,
We are joining two report server databases using reporting services config manager. The problem is when we are trying to connect database on another machine we are receiving following error at step 'generating Rights script'
System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No such host is known
at System.Net.Dns.GetAddrInfo(String name)
at System.Net.Dns.InternalGetHostByName(String hostName, Boolean includeIPv6)

As per step mentioned in following link,
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sameersurve/archive/2009/06/15/no-such-host-is-known-error-when-configuring-ssrs-2008.aspx
We tried opening port 1434 for the Reportserver db machine. but it didnt worked for me.
Following are points i feel could be the reason of failure,
1. The two machine we are working on are in different domains.
2. The Product version of the two reporting servers are different.
Have anyone experienced this if yes any solution that i can try?

Hi Shrikant_k,
If we are using a remote database server for the report server database, we should refer to the following tips:
Enable remote connections. And we should also open your firewall software and open the port that SQL Server listens on. For the default instance, this is typically port 1433 for TCP/IP connections. To verify that the instance accepts remote connections,
please refer to the following article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157300(v=sql.105).aspx
When you enable remote connections, the client and server protocols will also be enabled. To verify the protocols are enabled, please see:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191294(v=sql.105).aspx
When the database server is in a different domain or we are using workgroup security, we must configure the connection to use a SQL Server database login. In this way, we must update the report server database connection every time we change the password
or the account.
When creating a report server database, be aware that not all editions of SQL Server can be used to host the database. The following document is for your reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157285(v=sql.105).aspx
Reference:
Configuring a Report Server Database Connection
Hope this helps.

Problem with a Standby Database

Hello,
if have some problems with a special standby database. why special? because i try it whit another, which was newly build with oracle tools and everything works. I mean the redo log transfer and the log apply and everything.
At first I try to use the DGM, to guide me through the process, but this manager didn't start to copy anything of the database files. So I make an offline backup from the database as you can see in the oracle data guard doc. later on I used the DGM again to build a data guard configuration. Everything seems to be fine. But then I get ORA-16778: log transport service for some site has an error AND ORA-16766: physical apply service unexpectedly offline.
I don't know what to do now. I really try to help myself but it always stop at this point.
By the way ... merry Xmas!!!

Hi,
ORA-16766: physical apply service unexpectedly offline.You must check in the alert log why the MRP is going down, the info is in this file.
In order to get more comments, give us a "snapshot" of your install:
. Release
. Configuration
. Folders structures
. init file (pfile/spfile) contents
And paste the MRP error stack from the alert log.

Yoann.

Hello;
Script has to be run from auxiliary.
Great details, but what I don't see is how you connect in RMAN.
Example
Start RMAN
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target=sys/@recover2 auxiliary=sys/@reclone

connected to target database: RECOVER2 (DBID=3806912436)
connected to auxiliary database: RECLONE (not mounted)Nothing in your tnsnames or listener jumps out as wrong. I copied them into my text editor and compared against my working ones.
Generally for active duplication I start the future standby on a pfile NOMOUNT.
Auxiliary Instance Initialization Parameters Needed :
DB_NAME
CONTROL_FILES
DB_BLOCK_SIZE
( add extra parameters like DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT instead of using the SET command - clean up standby spfile right after duplication )
Then start RMAN and finally run a single line duplication command.
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman target=sys/@primary auxiliary=sys/@standby

Problem with the standby database?

i am working on 10gr2 on rhel4.
i am creating a standby database on the same servr machine.
i have taken a cold backup of the primary database and edited the parameter files for the primary as well as the standby database.
the only problem is that i am unable to open the standby database in the read only mode. following is the problem:
SQL> alter database open read only;
alter database open read only
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-16004: backup database requires recovery
ORA-01152: file 1 was not restored from a sufficiently old backup
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/data02/logical_stdby/prdbs02sb/oradata/system01.dbf
thanks

if i issue this command on the primary database, i get
SQL> select status, error from v$archive_Dest where dest_id=2;
STATUS ERROR
ERROR ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
what is the reason, my logs are not propagating to the standby.
also some entries from the primary alert log file is as below:
Thu Oct 4 15:19:26 2007
Errors in file /opt/db/oracle/admin/prdbs02/bdump/prdbs02_arc1_17509.trc:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
PING[ARC1]: Heartbeat failed to connect to standby 'PRDBS02SB'. Error is 1031.
what is the reason??? please let me know if anything else is required for troublshooting

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:
ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
Errors in file /<dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:
ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
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
stdby_11 75 YES 28-JUN-11
stdby_11 76 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 77 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 78 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 79 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 80 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 75 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 74 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 76 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 77 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 78 NO 07-JUL-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
