Query on Oracle Manual Standby management

Hi All,
There is requirement for upgrade of Oracle 10g Standard Edition to Oracle 11g Standard Edition. The environment has a manual standby database configured for production.
The standby management is currently being done via scripts for archive log shipping and recovery of standby.
As part of our recommendations we are looking out for tools to automate the standby management. Data Guard is not an options since that needs an Enterprise Edition license plus extra cost for Data Guard option.
We would like to know of any such tools. Could you please share the details in terms of features and cost of licensing, etc.
Thanks for your time!
Best Regards,
Udit

never tried it though, and it seems it does exactly the same than the custom archivelog shipping scripts, with some GUI on top of it

  • Oracle manually standby database with standard edition

    Hi, I want to have a plan for disaster. I'm triying with two virtual machines with oracle database 10g on suse linux. I follow these URLs
    http://www.dbasupport.com/oracle/ora10g/manual_standby.shtml
    http://oramdq.blogspot.com/2009/05/como-configurar-un-sistema-de-alta.html
    and it look that work all right.
    I know that with manually standby database we applied archived logs, and so, we don't propagate any physical changes to secondary database (standby), for example, if I create a new tablespace, or adding a new datafile to an existing tablespace, it don't work in the secondary database.
    Anyone does know how is the better way to apply the physical changes??
    Anyone have any scripts to do that?
    Thanks in advance.

    HI,
    Add the STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT = AUTO to the primary parameter file, it will solve it.

  • How to Create Manual Standby for a Oracle 11g RAC with ASM to Single Instan

    Hi All,
    I have a task to configure a Single Instance Standby Database with ASM for 2-node Primary RAC+ASM database.
    Version using : 11.1.0.6 Oracle 11g --- *" STANDARD EDITION "* Please note datagaurd will not be supported in standard edition.
    Primary database - 2 -Node RAC using ASM storage (All datafiles, redologs, controfile and archive logs)
    Need to setup a single instance standby database manually and than using scripts to transfer the archive logs from primary server to standby server to do recovery time to time.
    Please let me know if there are any configuration document(s) which can help me to set the manual standby? or need your kind help to give your valuable ideas how to go in above situation.
    Thanks in advance

    Well if the archive logs are stored in ASM on the primary nodes, you almost definitely want to be using RMAN to access them. Then to transfer between primary and standby there are many options, this is essentially the step that Data Guard takes care of - so if you (and I) are running Standard Edition, this is the part to "worry" about.
    I'm not really sure what you mean by this:
    As in standard edition the archive destination will be on ASMI don't think the Edition of Oracle (Standard or Enterprise) dictates where and how you store your archive logs, but it's possible I've misunderstood what you mean...SE dictates that database storage for RAC will be ASM, including archive log files. Anything else is not officially supported. I haven't tested but it may be that you can use LOG_ARCHIVE_DUPLEX_DEST to specify a local filesystem for archive log files as well.
    If that doesn't work you'll have to script rman "backup as copy" jobs regularly and then transport the results of that.

    By the way, it seems Robert has been pretty helpful, it's polite to give him some points dude. And since this is your thread, not mine, give him a "helpful" from me too :p
    El DBA
    Incidentally if you are forced down the RMAN backup as copy route then this will likely throw your current backup retention strategy somewhat, you'll need to think carefully about when an archivelog can be deleted following backup, how many times it might be backed up and so on. I do understand, and have argued for, the use of SE RAC. I also understand and have argued for and implemented manually managed standby a number of times. However by the time your primary database is a RAC instance and you need a standby for DR etc then you really have to look very seriously at whether Standard Edition is still the right investment or not. You will be spending a lot of DBA time managing and troubleshooting this, and you will find that it is less reliable than the off the shelf solution. I suspect that you are very close to the point where an EE installation becomes a worthwhile investment here.

  • Ask timesten 11.2 Using Oracle Clusterware to Manage Active Standby Pair

    Using Oracle Clusterware to Manage Active Standby Pairs
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13085_01/doc/timesten.1121/e13072/cluster.htm#CCHCFAAD
    What is that mean ?
    I have to use Share Storage for... Oracle Clusterware?
    I think right?... or wrong ?
    Can I have VIP on Master node, and then master down... standby will active with VIP, right ?

    A TimesTen A/S pair is a replicated configuation where a pair of TimesTen datastores, usually located on different machines, act in many ways as a single unit. The active master can process both queries and DML (insert/update/delete) while the standby master can only process queries (think of this as a little like Active Dataguard). Applications that run on the same machine as one of the TT datastores can connect to it via the very high performance 'direct mode' while applications running on other machines can access the datastores in client/server mode. There is a clearly defined procedure for failing over if the active master fails (which involves promoting the standby master to active) and for recovering a failed store back to the correct role. Direct mode applications must failover with the datastore whereas for client/server applications the connection(s) need to be failed over. The basic A/S pair replication mechanism has been available since TimesTen 6.0. The replication configuration is defined via special SQL syntax and monitoring and management (failover control etc.) is performed by way of built-in procedure calls. However, in TT 6.0 and 7.0 the actual monitoring and management of the A/S pair, including failover, is left for the user to implement themselvses or via some custom integration with an external cluster manager.
    TimesTen 11g adds two major new capabilities:
    1. Automatic client connection failover for client/server connections. Think of this as very similar to Oracle DB TAF and FAN. This does not require VIPs or Clusterware since it is implemented completely within TimesTen. However it works very well when used in onjunction with Clusterware.
    2. A deep integration between TimesTen and Oracle Clusterware. All aspects of Timesten A/S pair definition, deployment, management and recovery are handled by Clusterware. There is just a single configuration file and a single TimesTen utility (ttCWAdmin) involved. Of course you need a properly configured Clusterware setup first which will require some form of shared storage (for OCR and voting disks) but TT storage (checkpoint and log files) does not need to be on shared storage. Setting up TT for use with Clusterware is very quick and easy (maybe 30 minutes the first time you do it and much quicker thereafter once you know what you are doing). From then on Clusterware will manage all aspects of failover and recovery completely automatically. VIPs are not required but can be used if desired e.g. for application failover purposes. Clusterware can also manage the failover of direct mode applications. Also, you can define automated backup cycles and spare nodes that can be used if a node suffers some permanent failure. The Clusterware integration offers very rich functionality but also very fast failover (typically just a few seconds in my testing).
    Hope that helps clarify.

  • Single-instance manual standby for a three-node RAC database

    Hi all,
    I am wondering how it is possible to create a manual standby database for a rac primary database.
    Oracle versione is standard edition 11.1.
    I have experience creating and managing manual standby for single-instance database; I am wondering if and how I can instruct the single-instance standby database to discover and apply the three redo threads that I will copy from the primary site to the standby site.
    Should I use rman to catalog all the archived log on the standby site ?
    Should I configure many LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameters to point to many different path, one for each primary instance (i.e. one for each redo thread), and let rman automagically discover all the archived logs ?
    Should I configure only LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1 , put archivelogs from all threads in the same folder, and let rman automagically discover all the archived logs ?
    Thanks for every answer!
    Andrea

    Hi,
    indeed i catalog all transfered archive logs in front of the recover process.
    During the tests i believe (iirc) i was unable to recover from transfered archivelogs without catalog them first. But this statement is out of my mind, i am not 100% sure for this, sorry.
    Some more details.
    Because it is a standard edition, i have to use on the RAC side ASM. So our normal scripts to transfer archivelogs from primary to standby are obsolete.
    So i decided to put the whole standby thing into the database. Now the primary database uses external scheduler jobs to do the work. The standby side is not using ASM, so there is no need to handle the logs in any special way.
    The steps are:
    1. Get SCN from primary and standby
    2. Transfer the logs for the gap from ASM to "normal" filesystem.
    3. Transfer (and compress, if not in LAN) to standby archive dest
    4. Catalog on standby side
    5. Recover on standby side
    6. Delete on normal filesystem (on both sides, but on standby with a delay of 2 days just to be sure)
    The steps on the standby side are both using the primary scn from step 1 as a parameter to avoid error messages during the catalog or recover call.

  • Query on Oracle Concepts: Advantages of ASSM

    Hi,
    A query on Oracle Concepts, specifically on Advantages of ASSM.
    While I am able to understand 'Simplified administration' & 'Increased concurrency', can anyone mention this in simple terms:
    • Dynamic affinity of space to instances in an Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) environment.I guess I know whats Oracle RAC but what it meant by 'Dynamic affinity of space to instances'?
    Regards,
    Ankit Rathi

    Hi Aman,
    I was going through Oracle® Database Concepts 11g Release 2, Chapter 12 Logical Storage Structures (link below):
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25789/logical.htm#i19599
    *Automatic Segment Space Management*
    The ASSM method uses bitmaps to manage space. Bitmaps provide the following advantages:
    •Simplified administration
    ASSM avoids the need to manually determine correct settings for many storage parameters. Only one crucial SQL parameter controls space allocation: PCTFREE. This parameter specifies the percentage of space to be reserved in a block for future updates (see "Percentage of Free Space in Data Blocks").
    •Increased concurrency
    Multiple transactions can search separate lists of free data blocks, thereby reducing contention and waits. For many standard workloads, application performance with ASSM is better than the performance of a well-tuned application that uses MSSM.
    •Dynamic affinity of space to instances in an Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) environment
    ASSM is more efficient and is the default for permanent, locally managed tablespaces.Regards,
    Ankit Rathi

  • Manual Standby Database

    Hi,
    I have ORACLE 10.2.0.3.0 64 bit SE1 running on a RHEL4 server. I have a backup server on which I need to create a manual standby database for a (poor man's) high availability environment. We have explored RAC, Dataguard etc and given them up for cost considerations. We understand the potential of up to 15 minutes data loss. I know the general steps necessary to set up the manual standby server. For example, I know I need a cold (or hot) backup of the primary to reset my standby database. Then I need to create the standby control file. I need to write deamon processes to ship the archive logs to the standby server and apply those logs to the database. I am new to ORACLE and would appreciate some specific advice.
    (1) Should I use DBCA to create the database on the standby server first? My impression is that using DBCA will set up the enterprise manager, isqlplus and the relevevant entries in oratab etc on the standby server. If I simply install ORACLE 10g on the standby and copy the backup files from the primary server, I will not have access to the database tools that come with ORACLE 10g.
    (2) Can someone please share the scripts you may have written? or point me to some skeleton scripts?
    (3) What are the failure points for manual standby databases? What do I need to pro-actively monitor? For example, if the logs are not being applied properly to the standby database for a prolonged period, I would like to know about it.
    (4) What are the procedures for recovering from a failed master database?
    (5) Where can I learn more about the subject? I will need specific commands to setup the standby. Are these procedures documented somewhere?
    Thanks!
    - Rajesh

    Try this one Manual Standby Database under Oracle Standard Edition
    Or search the subject on google, many results.
    No, you will not create "standby" using DBCA, you need to use primary's backup to restore on standby server and constantly recover.

  • Oracle 10g Enterprise Manager Console bug?

    I think I have come across a bug in the Oracle 10g Enterprise Manager Console. If I go into my database, then into the schema, select your schema from the list, then tables. Now once your in your tables, find one that you know of and know fairly well, right click it, and select the show dependencies. A small window will open with just that table and its tablespace and user. Select user, database name, profile, then default. If you right click on the "default" and select "show dependencies" a blank blinking window will open and stay stuck in an infinite loop until you kill the application window. I think that this is a cumbersome tablespace issue. Any thoughts?

  • Manual Standby and Archlogs application

    Hi There,
    I need to set up a manual standby database for one of our production databases. We are using oracle 11g (11.1.0.7) 64x STANDARD EDITION on Windows 2008 server 64x.
    I shutdown the database, copied the data files and redo logs to a new server (same directories structure to the production database); I created a standby controlfile and a pfile and copied both across to the new host.
    I created the oracle windows service on the new machine and started the database as follows:

    Database altered.The production database has forced logging enabled in it so that we can capture all the DDL statemtents.
    We created a dummy schema, a dummy table (with few rows); issued a commit, and then switched the logs few times to create the necessary archive logs. We then manually moved the archive logs to the new standby host, and put them under the appropriate directory (D:\oracle\flash_recovery_area\STDBT\ARCHIVELOG\2010_04_13).
    Now we tried to recover the database by applying the new shipped logs:

How can we fix this so that oracle will detect the correct archlog name so that when we automate the applying of the logs it will work (and we don't have to do enter them manually one by one)?

  • Switchover of a manual standby database (no data guard)

    Hi all,
    I have a standby database .
    I am using Oracle Standard Edition 10.2.0.4 / 10.2.0.5 so I have build a manual standby .
    I am able to do a failover in the case something goes wrong; I was thinking if it is possible to do a manual switchover . and failback.
    Do you thick that mounting the primary database and applying ALL archivelogs and online redolog to the standby database is enough ?
    Do you think this is a supported operation?
    How can I check the current scn of a mounted database? (v$database.current_scn shows 0 until the database is opened )
    thnk you for every answer

    hi,
    You can see current_scn of standby database in v$database.current_scn. It is null only on primary database if it's in mount state.that's the problem: I am unable to mount both database and to check they have the same current_scn
    not all changes are written to ARL so you can't recover standby database to exact the same SCN as primaryI thinks this is because the last changes are only recorder in online redolog, so I was thinking that a possible way to simulate a clean switchover could be as follow:
    1 - shutdown immediate the primary database on server prod1
    2 - shutdown abort the (manual) standby database on server dr2
    3 - copy archivelog, controlfiles, tempfiles, onlinelogs from primary to the standby database
    3 - copy controlfiles from standby database to primary database
    4 - open the database on server dr2. It should open "read write" cleanly (mount + recover from archivelog + recover from onlinelog + open noresetlogs )
    5 - mount the database on server prod1. It should mount as a physical standby database.
    What do you think about it?

  • Manual Standby Database from EE to SE1

    Can I do a Manual Standby Database from Oracle Enterprise edition (EE) to Oracle Standard Edition One (SE1)?

    Hi,
    You can created a manual standby for EE, But you need to purchase a seperate licence for standby database also.
    See oracle licencing manul in oracle documentation.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Manual Standby Database not in sync with missing archivelogs

    Hello,
    OS: Solaris
    DB: Oracle 11.2.0.1 EE
    Not Using ASM or RAC
    I have a Production database that is in archivelog mode and a Standby DR server.
    Both servers (Prod, Standby) have exact same structure and db name/version.
    We manually scp archive logs and recover them to a manual standby database via SQL Scripts "cron". (I.E. set autorecovery on; recover standby database;)
    We recently got out of sync with our log files and have not been applying them to the standby. As part of Prod Maintenance, these log files were deleted and are not available anymore.
    I've tried several ways to "rebuild" our standby database. I have tried to Shutdown prod, backup all the db files and scp them to standby, re-create standby controlfile and startup mount and recover standby.
    Every time I try to apply a new archive log via recover standby, these are the errors:
    ORA-00279: change 211077622 generated at 1/27/2012 12:18:42 needed for thread 1
    ORA-00289: suggestion : /oradump/arch/PROD/PROD_arch_1_69486_736618850.arc

    ORA-00308: cannot open archived log '/oradump/arch/PROD/PROD_arch_1_69486_736618850.arc'
    ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status
    SVR4 Error: 2: No such file or directory
    Additional information: 3
    ORA-10879: error signaled in parallel recovery slave
    ORA-01547: warning: RECOVER succeeded but OPEN RESETLOGS would get error below
    ORA-01152: file 1 was not restored from a sufficiently old backup
    ORA-01110: data file 1: '/oradevices/PROD/oraPRODsystem1.dbf'
    When I check v$log_history, the new logs have not been applied.
    I've also tried the "Restore from incremental backup via SCN" method with same results.
    Is there a way to re-create the standby clean and ensure that the log chain that is currently broken gets fixed or reset?
    I would eventually like to get DataGuard in here, but that's not the case at the moment.
    Thanks for your suggestions.

    if you are using the cold backup to create the standby database, Check that have you followed the following steps or not.
    1. remove
    all the datafiles and controlfiles from the standby database.
    2. Create a new standby controlfile of the production for standby using the following cmd
    'alter database create standby controlfile as 'Location';'
    3. move the new controlfile to standby database server location as specified in initialization parameter file.
    4. Restore all the datafiles to its appropriate loaction which was taken through cold backup.
    5. startup nomount
    6. alter database mount standby database;
    7. recover standby database.
    scp the archive log sequence that is asked by the database, from production.
    You can try this steps.

  • Manual Standby Recovery

    Hi Friendz,
    Oracle Db 9i
    I have configured a manual standby database(I am not using Dataguard or "create standby database" command ) I only copy the cold backup to the target recovery server. I have been applying archive logs to it for a week now. I use the "recover automatic database using backup controlfile" command.
    My problem is, when I try to "alter database open resetlogs" so I can test if I can open it, It is asking for the next archive log and message "that the system01.dbf needs recovery". How can I open my standby database and force it to stop recovery?
    Thanks a lot
    Ms Inday

  • SuPM - Data from SAP BW Query(Automatic) and Manual not displayed in KPI

    Dear Forum,
    I am also, currently working on a project implementing BO SuPM Version 1.0. Landscape is ECC -> BI -> SuPM dashboards.
    I have created a KPI in SuPM dashboard.
    Case 1 : Automatic data collection - This KPI is marked for Automatic data collection. So, maintained Scripts with Connectivity and SAP BW Query name. I save this KPI and include in a new report and Run it. There are no records displayed.
    Case 2: Manual data collection - This KPI is marked for manual data collection. So, maintained values in SuPM portal itself. I save this KPI and include in a new report and Run it. There are no records displayed.
    Could you please help me how KPI in SuPM be filled manually and automatically ( from BW Query)?
    Thanks,
    Best Regards
    PhaniRaj

    Dear Phani,
    First of All, you should have a framework created and assign the Core KPI to that framework and specify the frequency of the framework (Say Monthly) and Activate it.
    Upon Activation, if it is a Manual Data Collection, then you should perform Role Assignment ie specifyinfwho would be the Business Contributor & Approver for ur Manual KPI.
    After this, you have to run this program [/SRCORE/DATAREQUEST] in SE38 in the backend system which wil create a data request,
    Later you should login as Business Contributor and go to MY Data Requests and then provide the data for the Month specified. Then login as Approver and under Approvals option, you should Approve the data. Now, you should go to SuPM application and select that Month in the dimension and KPI and then RUN the Report.
    For Automated Data Collection, you should have to initially creata a Query (SAP/ BW) and specify the name of the query in SPRO--> Sustainability Performance Management --> Automated Data Collection --> Maintain Queries (SAP/ BW) -->  Specify that Query name and the Connector ID (SM59).
    Now go for KPI creation and specify the Query name in the KPI and then Assign the KPI to the framework and activate it.
    Upon Activation, You should RUN the program /SRCORE/AUTO_DATA_COLLECT. Now, select this KPI in the report and RUN the report.
    If you perform these actions, you will get the values in the report.
    It can be checked in the backend application, either by checking the Process chain[RSPC] or by checking the Infocube if the data is loaded into the Infocube or not.
    Let me know if you face any problems...
    Regards,
    Raghu
