Standby database 11g

Oracle 11.2. I am building standby database as a reporting database.
Can physical standby database only be open read-only state? My understanding is yes, but I like to confirm it.
If I want my standby database to be read/write, only logical standby database can make it?
Thanks for the help
S.

Hello again;
Do you think logical standby read-write feature can create a temp table on the fly?Yes. That should work.
Another option ( might depend upon the size of your reporting database ) is materialized views.
On some of the smaller databases this works well, and ALL write options are available. A logical Standby should work but you might think about the maintenance it requires before you decided on a solution.
Search the Data Guard forum for logical questions might help you decide too.
Kind of old but

  • Standby database(11g) was still in sync after stopping the primary and standby database listener.

    Hello !!!
    I have noticed that my standby database(11g) was still in sync after stopping the primary and standby database listener.
    If this is the case then how log is transferring from primary to standby ? it is not using listener service ? kindly clarify

  • What are the steps applying incremental backups to standby database 11g

    Hi All,
    I have built 11g none ASM standby database from ASM RAC Database. Now I want to apply incremental backup to the standby database from primary but not sure how to do it. I tried following and I had an error “ORA-01103: database name 'ins-prim' in control file is not 'ins-sec'”
    1- I have configured standby database with RMAN backup.
    2- After finishing installation, I took a incremental backup from primary server(ins-prim) and moved incremental backup and control file to the standby (ins-sec) database
    3- I stared standby database nomount mode
    4- restore controlfile from “incremental backup location in standby database”
    5- alter database mount; and got this error
    “ORA-01103: database name 'ins-prim' in control file is not 'ins-sec'”
    What are the steps applying incremental backups to standby database with 11g?
    Thank you

    I build the database from backup and changed from ASM to none ASM and changed location of data files and logfiles. I think this changes makes the standby database as logical one.
    You can a have a physical standby with different locations for everything (redo/controlfiles/datafiles), ASM and no ASM etc. I have a such a configuration in production (10gR2)
    I build the database from backup
    Are you sure you have a standby ? Ins-sec receives the archivelog files from the primary ? How did you proceed to build this database ? I suspect you don't have a standby at all ! If you have duplicated the database ins-sec and ins-pri are independent databases and you won't be able to apply an incremental backup (your script was not correct but it is another story)

  • Materialized View Logs in a logical standby database

    I am trying to create materialized views based on a few tables in a logical standby database.
    The target database (11g R2) where the MVs will be created is a stand-alone database.
    The DB where the base tables reside is a logical standby database (11g R2).
    The requirement is to do a "FAST REFRESH" of the Materialized Views.
    My questions are :
    1. Can I create MV logs in the logical standby DB?
    2. If the answer to question no. 1 is "Yes", do I need to do anything different or configure the logical standby DB in a specific manner in order to create MV logs. From what I understand, the objects in the logical standby database are in a locked state. Is that going to be a problem ?
    Any other information that might be relevant is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    I appreciate your quick response.
    My choice of name may not have been ideal, however changing new to another name - like gav - does not solve the problem.

  • Create standby database using restore backup

    Hi,
    I am creating a standby database 11g using  manual process of restoring a backup , but to no avail. I can not even restore the backup successfully.
    This is the steps I followed (courtesy of ORACLE-BASE) ORACLE-BASE - Data Guard Physical Standby Setup in Oracle Database 11g Release 2
    I am confused about these steps:
    Copy the files from the primary to the standby server.
    Copy Standby controlfile to all locations.
    $ scp oracle@ol5-112-dga1:/tmp/db11g_stby.ctl /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl
    $ cp /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl
    My question is, for the 2nd copy, do I need to shutdown the primary db? since control01.ctl is being updated all the time?
    Can I not used the standby ctl (db11g_stbg.ctl) and copy it to /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl instead?
    Your assistance is highly appreciated.

    Hi,
    You are created standby  control file on primary and copied to standby  side:
    $ scp oracle@ol5-112-dga1:/tmp/db11g_stby.ctl /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl
    And now, in paramter files, you have CONTROL_FILES parameter as below :
    control_files='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl', '/u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl'
    it means you must copy controlfile IN standby side to second control file. Control  files must be same.
    $ cp /u01/app/oracle/oradata/DB11G/control01.ctl /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl
    My question is, for the 2nd copy, do I need to shutdown the primary db? since control01.ctl is being updated all the time?
    You not need shutdown priamry database, becuase you  copied standby control file to standby side, and all operations goin in standby side.
    Can I not used the standby ctl (db11g_stbg.ctl) and copy it to /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/DB11G/control02.ctl instead?
    Yes, you can use (db11g_stbg.ctl)  standby controlfile

    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

    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.

    Hello;
    Generally for the connection to work you need to add something like this to the listener.ora file :
    (SID_DESC =
        (global_dbname = STANDBY.hostname)
        (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2)
        (sid_name = STANDBY)
    )You should stop and start the listener on the Standby after adding this. Also your tnsnames.ora must be correct on both the primary and the Standby.
    Also you need an INIT for the Standby side :

  • How to make a physical standby database in the read_only state in 11g?

    In 10g, we can make a physical standby database in the read_only state. But in 11g, no a read_only state for a physical standby database. How to make a physical standby database in the read_only state in 11g?

    Hi
    read-only mode (for 11g physical standby)
    A mode in which a database can be opened that allows queries, but disallows modifications.
    A physical standby database can be opened read-only so that queries may be performed. If a license for the Oracle Active Data Guard option has been purchased, a physical satndby database can be open while redo apply is active. This capability is known as Real-time Query.

  • Snapshot standby database in oracle 11g r2 RAC

    Folks,
    i am just wondering if the process is same for standalone and RAC snapshot standby database.
    We have a DR test
    1 / I just converted the standalone DR on 11g to snapshot standby database for users to do some testing and reverted back to physical standby after test was done. i folllowed metalink note ID 443720.1
    2/ now there is anotherDR test where we have 2 node prod and 2 node DR on oracle 11g rel2 RAC, so not sure we can follow the same process that i used for 11g standalone database. If somebody have done this on RAC, would you please provide the steps ?
    Thanks in advance

    I haven't done a Snapshot Standby (RAC or non-RAC). But I see no reason why it shouldn't work with a RAC Standby either.
    The command is a Database level command, not an Instance level command.

  • 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 is to do?
    What mean's in this case:
    "ORA-01152 file string was not restored from a sufficiently old backup
    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?

  • 10g Primary database work with a 11g Standby database

    Can a 10g Primary database work with a 11g Standby database?
    The existing database is Oracle 10g and I don't want to upgrade it. But I really need the Real-time Query feature of 11g Physical Standby Database.
    Can they work together?

    Hi,
    do you have any proof?
    I never find any proof in Oracle Docs.Kindly refer to doc's and check things it states Primary and Standby Servers Versions must be same - similar to that you can find very much clear. That is more than enough for proof else Test it you will find your self...;-).

    could you help on this...?
    waiting for your favorable reply,
    thanks in advance..
    Regards

    Hi;
    This error occurs when you have run a switchover/ failover, you may have two parallel standby's but when you pass the command for switchover the one standby is not aware of what you have done.
    The point is that all standby should know who is your primary & standby's should also be aware of each other in their "pfiles" now, you should either recreate the standby or open with reset logs.
    ora-600 occurs due to different incarnation.
    Hope this will help you
    if you switch multiple logfiles in primary, & run >>
    alter database recover managed standby database disconnect;
    your standby will start syncing.
    Hope this will help you
