Standby database open to test
Hi.
I's needed to activate some physical standby databases in the DR site to test if the applications are working correctly. Everthing ran correctly, only I have an one problem:
When the DataGuard was synchronized, this does correctly:
Ex.
Prod database
select max(sequence#) from v$log_history; Max sequence: 115
Standby database
select max(sequence#) from v$log_history; Max sequence: 114
But in OEM - DataGuard monitoring page indicate me the sequence that the database advanced during the tests and not the sequence in wich really the standby database goes.
How can I solve this issue?
Thanks
Hi Hemant.
I's followed the steps of "12.6 Using a Physical Database for Read/Write testing and reporting (Oracle Data Guard concepts and Administration guide)" and in this guide have a note for first make a guaranteed restore point, then activate the standby db and after the test restore to this point.
All the steps is running correctly but when I check in the Data guard status pages on the OEM, the *'Last received log'* column have the last sequences generated during the test and in the *'Last applied log'* column have a zero, but if I check with the next sql query in the standby database:
sql> select max(sequence#) from v$log_history;
have the sequence correctly; before I was do the steps to synchronize with the primary database.
I's make a clean of the agents on both servers, the same data.
After the some day, the databases are synchronize.

Using LOGMNR on Standby Database
We are running Solaris 8 9i Release 1 Patchset 3
databases. I have a primary database and
a delayed mode Data Guard standby in Managed Recovery mode.
What I want to do is use the Standby to mine the Primary's Logs via LOGMNR, however I don't want to initialize the Standby. From what I recall, you can run LOGMNR against a Mounted Database rather than an OPEN READ WRITE database. Here are my questions:
1. Can LOGMNR be run on a Standby Database opened in READ ONLY mode?
2. Can LOGMNR be run on a Mounted Standby?
3. Can I analyze the Primary Logs currently being Transferred and subsequently applied to the Standby?
Obviously, I could test these one-by-one, but I thought I'd start here first. Any help would be appreciated.

Portland State UniversityNo this to my knowlewdge is not true.
The DBID is created upon creation of the database. If you duplicate your database quick and dirty, you would probably simply copy the control file to a different server, assure that all mounting points and pathes are the same than on production and perform a restore and recovery based on the production backup sets and archive logs. This then would result in a complelety identical database, including the DBID.
If you need to change the DBID because you did a manual duplication as indicated above and want to register the new database with a recovery catalog, this then would force you to utilize the dbnewid tool to overwrite the DBID.
If you duplicate your database using the RMAN duplicat command, RMAN will assing a new DBID, so this then is the clean way. Using the RMAN frees you from any headache related to the DBID.

Active data guard standby database
Hello,
we have to choose which technology to use for maintain Oracle backup center synchronized with main center. This backup center should be read only, and data generated in main should be replicated into backup. So I would like to use Active Data Guard, but I have a possible issue with reading in backup center, because reading is not just select, but filling(inserting data) some temporary tables (from client side, and from procedures in database). Will Standby database in backup center allow this if Active Data Guard is used. We would go with Oracle 11gR2.
Also other suggestions on replication technologies (I know there are RAC, ADG, Oracle Streams, Golden Gate), or any document which would help us decide which of these technologies would suit our needs the best.
Thank You.Hi,

In 11.1 or later you can use feature "Snapshot Standby Databases" if this write on database is temporary (i.e you will not use the new data) and at backup time you not need use Snapshot Standby Database feature.
A snapshot standby database is a physical standby database that you temporarily convert into an updatable standby database. You can use snapshot standby databases as clones or test databases to validate new functionality and new releases, and when finished you then convert the database back into a physical standby. While running in the snapshot standby database role, it continues to receive and queue redo data so that data protection and the RPO are not sacrificed.
A snapshot standby database has the following characteristics:
* A snapshot standby database cannot be the target of a switchover or failover. A snapshot standby database must first be converted back into a physical standby database before performing a role transition to it.
* A snapshot standby database cannot be the only standby database in a Maximum Protection Data Guard configuration.
Note:
Flashback Database is used to convert a snapshot standby database back into a physical standby database. Any operation that cannot be reversed using Flashback Database technology will prevent a snapshot standby from being converted back to a physical standby.

Also other suggestions on replication technologies (I know there are RAC, ADG, Oracle Streams, Golden Gate), or any document which would help us decide which of these technologies would suit our needs the best.If you need "standby" database opened in read-write all time the best option is to use Golden Gate.

Questions regarding creating a physical standby database in 10gR2
I'm setting up a physical standby database in a test environment using two windows 2003 servers. I was wondering if someone could answer a few questions I'm not too clear on. I've been thru the data guard manual and as much online information as i can find. I may have it working but wanted to post some things I'm not sure I did quite right.

The next item I'm not sure about is after creating the control file for standby use.
One the primary server I created it using:
alter database create standby controlfile as 'sbcontrol01.ctl';
I copied the primary database pfile I had created earlier to the standby server, renamed it and edited it.
Initially I left the CONTROL_FILES= parameter pointing to the control01.ctl, control02.ctl and control03.ctl that I restored. But I was getting the error ORA-01665: control file is not a standby control file
So I copied the sbcontrol01.ctl to sbcontrol02 and sbcontrol03.ctl and pointed the CONTROL_FILES= parameter at them.
The error went away and the database came up. I still need to test it some more but wanted to see if what i did was correct or a fluke.
Edited by: tjohnson on Mar 23, 2009 2:26 PMIf in the primary I had control files named control01, control02 and control03 would I have been able to create a standby controlfile called control01.ctl or would I have had to name it something else like I did (sbcontrol01.ctl) and rename it to control01.ctl once I got it over to the standby database server?Suppose you have the primary database control file in C:\oracle\primary\control location with names control01.ctl and control02.ctl. Then also you can create a standby controlfile with control01.ctl and control02.ctl , but then the location to be created must be different.You can create it in C:\oracle\primary location and then transfer to the specified location mentioed in the pfile of the standby database and mount the standby database.
But saying this i would suggested to keep the name different from control01.ctl as far as naming conventions are followed.It might confuse someoe whether its a primary database controlfe or a standby database controlfile.Usally primary database controlfile are named control01.ctl , coltrol02.ctl etc and for standby many do prefer keeping standby01.ctl, standby02.ctl.Thats just for for understanding.

Standby database not working after reinstallation of oracle in primary DB
Hello All,
Initially I had setup primary database (DB1) and Standby database (DB2), for test environment.
In DB1 I had got ORA-600 error. So, after I researched, I came to know that I need to apply some patches. But I reinstalled oracle in DB1. And the problem was solved in DB1.
After that, I issued the following commands in DB2, but I got error
SQL>SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
ORA-01034: Oracle not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
SQL>STARTUP MOUNT;
ORA-27102: out of memoryNow, I mean to say, both DB1 and DB2 are independent.
Also, DB2 is not active since 2 months
DB1 is working fine.
Please guide me with procedure, how to configure DB2 for the current DB1Hello;
After two months I would rebuild.
If you are on Oracle 11 you can use RMAN to do this quickly.
Here's a few short notes :
http://www.visi.com/~mseberg/duprman2.html
http://www.visi.com/~mseberg/standby_creation_from_active_database_using_rman.html
Can you post your full oracle version and Primary database size?
If you rebuild I would remove all the data files from the Standby, recopy the password file from the Primary to the Standby and double my tnsnames.ora and listener.ora on both servers.
Best Regards

Standby database creating error oracle 10g
Hi
i created standby database,but i cannot access primary database data. the standby database opened read only.
but i cannot access data from primary.so i check query in standby database,
SQL> SELECT SEQUENCE#, FIRST_TIME, NEXT_TIME FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG ORDER BY SEQUENCE#;
no rows selected.
what i mistake
Regards
S.AzarIt you are not seeing any errors in the primary alert log, then I think that you have defined log_archive_dest_2 to use LOCATION instead of SERVICE. Archive logs have to be transmitted through Oracle Net in order to be automatically registered by the standby database.
Hope this helps.

How to open a standby database for use?
First, let me state that I am not a DBA nor am I a systems guy; I'm a software developer.
At work, we recently built a new virtualized db server by cloning our disaster recovery (DR) database server. The DR database was kept in 'standby' mode (I think that's the correct term) and was synched with production daily via archive logs.
So now, we have this new virtualized server that has a clone of that 'standby' database on it, and I need to 'open' that database so that it's usable (ie, no longer a standby db). How do I do that?? We recently lost our DBA so this has fallen into my lap.
From searching the web, I've found all sorts of instructions. It seems that I need to issue some commands via SQL*Plus? But as what user? From where do I issue these commands (I assume from the virtualized server)? And what are the commands?
This is Oracle 10g v10.2.0.3.0 running on Solaris 10 for x86.
Thanks!
DaveHi Dave, I do this each time we do a DR test. I have 10.2.0.3 in physical standby mode.
First, I make sure I have flashback turned on (here is what I've done):
connect / as sysdba
startup nomount
alter database mount standby database;
alter database flashback on;
alter database recover managed standby database through all switchover disconnect using current logfile;
exit;Activate the physical standby:
alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
alter database activate physical standby database;
alter database open;
exit;When completed with DR test we return the database back to physical standby mode:
Find the SCN when the physical standby was activated (this is so we can flashback to that point in time)
select standby_became_primary_scn from v$database;connect / as sysdba
flashback database to scn <this is the value returned from above>;
alter database convert to physical standby;
shutdown immediate
startup mount
alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;
exit;I hope that helps,

Opening a Standby Database in Read-Only mode
Is there anyway to open a Standby database up to date as of a certain time? I'm currently using the 2 commands to get close to the time required.
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE DISCONNECT;
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE CANCEL;
Such as, similar to this? RECOVER DATABASE UNTIL TIME '2012-01-25:15:00:00';
We're on 11.1.0.7, which I'm currently very unhappy with.
Thanks for any help, as my google-fu hasn't worked today.
JamesMaybe
I did a quick test :
8:42 open the databases and start recovery
8:43 check status from primary
Shows sequence 75
and "TO STANDBY" for switchover status
Did log switches at 8:44, 8:45, and 8:46
8:50
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
SQL> RECOVER STANDBY DATABASE UNTIL TIME ' 2012-01-25:20:43:00';
Media recovery complete.
SQL>
8:52
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;
Database altered.
Check status
TO STANDBY and sequence 78Still need to check alert logs and do another log switch. It checks out so the quick test works.
However the quick test is incomplete since there was no before and after data in the test and the time period was very short.
Andy may be right, but I would test, test test. ( if you do please let us know the results )
Thanks Andy!

After sleeping on this I decided my first thought is probably correct. You cannot go back in time and still be in sync. While the test statement did not error or produce any alert log entries, it probably did nothing. Oracle is smart enough to know you cannot have your Cake and eat it too. -
Test physical standby database in dataguard
Hi all,
I had a successfull dataguard implementation for oracle 9r2.
Primary and standby databases are on different nodes, logs from primay are shipping and applying to physical standby database successfully.
As these database are for oracle 11i ebs, so for testing dataguard status i had created a table manually having columns date and remarks. Periodically i insert few records in this table in primary database and then chek this tabel in standby database (by opening in read only mode).
Now i want to test physical standby database with applications tier but don't want to disturb origional primary database.
as these are the normal switchover steps
1) at primary db
ALTER DATABASE COMMIT TO SWITCHOVER TO PHYSICAL STANDBY WITH SESSION SHUTDOWN;
2) at standby
ALTER DATABASE COMMIT TO SWITCHOVER TO PRIMARY;
3) at primary, now this will be the stand by database
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP MOUNT;
4) at standby, now this will be the primary database
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP
My concern is if i skip step 1 and 3 and only execute step 2 and 4, will that be applicable for my requirement, or there is some other way to achieve this goal.
Regards,
KenTo avoid touching the primary production DB, you may try to use the following command on your standby database side:
alter database activate standby database;
This will turn your standby database to primary database, however the log will be reset and this means you will need to rebuild your DR.
Another way is to use flash back feature on your standby database, activate it and revert back to the flashback point when the DR testing is done. -

How to open a "manual" Physical standby database in read/write mode
Hi,
I am running Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production Standard Edition on Linux version 2.6.9-42.0.8.ELsmp ([email protected]) (gcc version 3.4.6 20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-3))
I've created a physical standby database, but since I am running Standard Edition, I am not using the DataGuard features. I use the rsync utility to copy over the archivelogs to the standby database, and I apply them periodically to the standby database.
The standby database is started this way :
startup nomount pfile='/u01/oradata/orcl/initorcl.stdby';
alter database mount standby database;
Everything runs perfectly fine, I can do "alter database open read only" and then I can do selects into tables to confirm that everything is up to date.
The thing is, if I shutdown immediate the database, then do just startup :
shutdown immediate;
startup;
The database opens with no error messages, but is still in read-only mode...
I read that the default behavior for a standby database is to open read-only, like I am experiencing, but I would like to know what is the right way to open it correctly in read-write mode (I understand that after that, my standby will not be standby anymore and that I will have to recreate my standby database).
Thanks,
MatHello,
There're features which allows you to open a Standby database in Read/Write mode but for all I know
it needs Entreprise Edition.
In Enterprise Edition you can use Logical Standby database. More over, for Physical standby there's
a way by using flashback database so as to rolling backward the database and avoiding to recreate
the Standby.
In Standard Edition I'm afraid that you'll have to recreate your Standby database.
Best regards,
Jean-Valentin -
