The script is below which I have to run in Primary (orcl) database :
Script :
run {
allocate channel prmy1 type disk;
allocate channel prmy2 type disk;
allocate channel prmy3 type disk;
allocate channel prmy4 type disk;
allocate auxiliary channel stby type disk;
duplicate target database for standby from active database
spfile
parameter_value_convert 'orcl','orclsby1'
set db_unique_name='orclsby1'
set db_file_name_convert='/orcl/','/orclsby1/'
set log_file_name_convert='/orcl/','/orclsby1/'
set control_files='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orclsby1.ctl'

You need to:
- create a SPFILE manually for standby database
- use the RMAN command: DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY
- remove all SPFILE statements from RMAN script.
