Standby Database not succeeded

Question

Hi experts, I need your assistance.
I am configuring physical stby database on the same host on oracle Release 11.1.0.6.0 win xp. But not not succeeded.
These are the steps I followed
Host name = sumanr
Primary database = orcl
Stby database = stby
1. On the same host I created the instance as 'stby' for the standby database using oradim
2. created the password file using orapwd
3. added the entry for stby databse in tnsnames and listener files
4. created the initstby.ora file with the single entry for db_name=orcl
5. started the stby database in nomount mode.
-------On Primary created the stby redologs
alter database add standby logfile group 4
('C:\app\oracle\oradata\orcl\sby_redo01.rdo') size 50M;
alter database add standby logfile group 5
('C:\app\oracle\oradata\orcl\sby_redo02.rdo') size 50M;
alter database add standby logfile group 6
('C:\app\oracle\oradata\orcl\sby_redo03.rdo') size 50M;
alter database add standby logfile group 7
('C:\app\oracle\oradata\orcl\sby_redo04.rdo') size 50M;
--------OnStandby
sqlplus / as sysdba
startup nomount
------On Primary  RMAN
connect target sys/oracle@orcl
connect auxiliary sys/oracle@stby
run {
   allocate channel c1 type disk;
   allocate auxiliary channel s1 type disk;
duplicate target database
        for standby
        from active database
        dorecover
        spfile
        parameter_value_convert 'orcl','stby'
        set db_unique_name='stby'
        set db_file_name_convert='orcl','stby'
        set log_file_name_convert='orcl','stby'
        set control_files='C:\app\oracle\oradata\stby\control01.ctl','C:\app\oracle\oradata\stby\control02.ctl','C:\app\oracle\oradata\stby\control03.ctl'
        set fal_client='stby'
        set fal_server='orcl'
        set standby_file_management='AUTO'
        set log_archive_config='dg_config=(orcl,stby)'
        set log_archive_dest_2='service=orcl LGWR ASYNC valid_for=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) db_unique_name=stby'
        set log_archive_dest_state_2='enable'
        set log_archive_format='stby_%t_%s_%r.arc';
  sql channel c1 "alter system archive log current";
run {
   allocate auxiliary channel s1 type disk;
   sql channel s1 "alter database recover managed standby database using current logfile disconnect";
}Now in stby when I check v$log, it gives
SQL> select * from v$log;

Hello SYbrand
Thanks for your resply. I have created the stby redologs in the primary and RMAN is creating them in the standby database.As I checked in the standby
