Standby DB creation

HI all,
I have 'Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.1.0.2.0 - Prod' installed, I want to create one standby DB through EM Dataguard Manager, but it is not available in EM. Even the DGMGRL command also not working.
As I know Dataguard feature is available in Enterprise Edition , then what could be the reason...
Any idea please.
Regards
Suman

In the last four years: How did your organization manage to not apply a single patch to your production database?
That is a far bigger issue than Data Guard and should be dealt with first.
Having done so the second problem will solve itself.

  • Standby DB creation internal error - Where do I see the detail ???

    Hi all,
    I have Win2003 Server runnning Oracle 10.2.0.3. I have been trying to use Grid Control to create a standby database and have been running into some problems during the http transfer of the compressed data files. To get around this I decided to first use Grid Control to 'Create a primary database backup only'. I then ftp these manually to the standby server. (carefull about ascii and binary).
    Then when creating the standby database I use 'Use a backup from a previous standby database creation' and give it the directory I ftped the files to.
    During Step 3-4, I get this error. Where can I got on the host or the standby to look at a log file to see what the real error is? THANKS !!!
    Error
    Examine and correct the following error(s), then retry the operation.
    Remote Operation Error - Internal error occured

    To get around this I decided to first
    use Grid Control to 'Create a primary database backup
    only'. I then ftp these manually to the standby
    server. (carefull about ascii and binary).
    Then when creating the standby database I use 'Use a
    backup from a previous standby database creation' and
    give it the directory I ftped the files to.
    But that is bnot a 'Use a backup from a previous standby database creation' . That is a primary database backup.
    Check in the emagent.log and emoms.log under ORACLE_HOME\sysman\log

  • Physical Standby Database Creation with RMAN

    Hi,
    I'm in 10g on Linux. I want to create a standby database on another Linux server. I did not find a clear procedure to create it in Oracle® Database Backup and Recovery Advanced User's Guide 10g Release 2 (10.2) Part Number B14191-02
    and niether in Oracle® Data Guard Concepts and Administration 10g Release 2 (10.2) B14239-04
    In the last one chapter 3 sends you to F appendix and F appendix says do nothing before having than all in chapter 3 :
    In F.1.1 page F-2 it is said :
    See Chapter 3 for a complete discussion of physical standby database preparation,including initialization parameter settings. You must perform all necessary preparation tasks described in these chapters before RMAN can successfully create the standby database files and mount the standby database.
    Any way I'm looking for a procedure or clear article to create it.
    Many thanks before.

    Use the DUPLICATE command.

  • Standby redolog creation

    Hi,
    At the time of physical standby DB creation Oracle doc says that...
    3.1.3 Configure a Standby Redo Log
    Example 3-1 Adding a Standby Redo Log File Group to a Specific Thread
    The following statement adds a new standby redo log file group to a standby database and assigns it to THREAD 5:
    SQL> ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE THREAD 5
    2> ('/oracle/dbs/log1c.rdo','/oracle/dbs/log2c.rdo') SIZE 500M;
    Is this logfiles created in the primary DB and the directory structure is in primary DB?
    If yes then, how under section 5.1 Introduction to Redo Transport Services figure 5-1shows standby redolog files are showing in standby DB?
    So shall I create standby redolog in both DBs? or only in primary DB?
    I need your input to clear this confusion please.
    regards

    Hello,
    You SHOULD create your standby redo log files on both your current primary AND your current standby.
    You never know, one day the current primary might be the current standby and the current standby your now current primary!

  • RAC to RAC physical standby DB creation

    Addition to that,
    As you are in 11g, You can perform duplicate from active database without backup. here you no need to copy those backups to standby server.

  • Steps to rollback when Logical Standby Database creation fails

    Hi,
    In case while creating a logical standby database it fails. What steps should be done on primary to rollback the earlier steps. Because while creating logical standby we do certain tasks on primary e.g.
    1) create supplemental logging.
    2) update init file.
    Regards,
    Tushar

    Hi,
    Thanks for the mail. Should I drop the supplemental logging using
    "Alter database DROP Supplemental Log data;".
    or if we need to disable, how can we do so?
    Rest is ok. Anyways I would not be using force logging.
    Droping of additional tablespace created to keep logminer tables on primary.
    Removing of log_archive_dest_2 information from primary init.
    I think the above should do.

  • StandBy database creation in oracle 10g

    Respected Sir's
    I have to create stand by database in oracle 10g i am working on (Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Prod) .Plz any body provide steps required for creating stand by database in oracle10g.Both the database db1 and db2 are running on archivelog.I am confuse how to set archivelog parameter that goes to db2(standby database) from db(primary database).Any one provide me steps to properly configuring the stand by database.
    Thanks

    Respected Sir
    These are the detailed steps that i performed on standby and primary database.
    On both the systems i install the oracle in E drive and the database i create in G drive and archive destination also in G drive.
    Like G:\prod1\(all the datafiles,logfiles and control file).
    G:\arch\(all the archive files).
    ON PRIMARY DATABASE(IP:192.168.2.14):
    1.First i create a database with DBCA and the database SID is prod1.
    2.Put the database in archive mode and also enable the force logging.
    3.Shutdown the Primary database and modify the following parameters in pfile.
    log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=G:\ARCH'
    log_archive_dest_2 = "service=STDBY mandatory reopen=60"
    log_archive_dest_state_1 = enable
    log_archive_dest_state_2 = enable
    log_archive_min_succeed_dest = 2
    4.Mount the primary database and create the standby controle file and create the spfile from the modified pfile.
    5.Shutdown the primary database and take the backup of all the datafile,logfile,standby controlfile ,passwordfile,pfile in a folder.
    6.Startup the primary database.
    Tnsname.ora Configuration.
    Create the connection string using the Net Manager with name STDBY and in host name i provide the IP address of the standby database.
    ON STANDBY DATABASE(IP 192.168.2.9):
    Listener.ora Configuration.
    Create a listener using the Net configuration Assistance.
    1.I copy the datafile,logfile and standby controle file in g:\prod1
    2.Copy the E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\admin\prod1 folder from primary database and past it on the same location on the standby database.
    3.On standby pfile i change only the standby_archive_dest parameter to g:\arch.
    4.Create the service with oradim -SID -NEW prod1 -STARTMODE manuall
    5.Start the standby database in nomount mode.
    6.Create the spfile from pfile and shutdown the database.
    7.Startup the database in nomount mode using spfile.
    8.ALTER DATABASE MOUNT STANDBY DATABASE;

  • Standby Database Creation in the same Box Oracle 9.2.0.1

    Box - Sun Solaris 64 bit
    Oracle Version - 9.2.0.1
    I have a database called 'sales' in the above box. I want to create a standby database in the same box (in different mount point). This is what I did:
    1. took cold backup of all datafiles
    2. created standby controlfile
    3. updated init file.
    -when I tried to start the stabdby db, it is throwing error because the controlfile is confusing with the same db name as the primary ('sales').
    My question is: Can I create a standby db in the same box?

    Hello,
    For keeping the standby database on same HOST....it does seems to be great...i must be on separate box....may be on different network...i believe you would be using it for some failiover purpose...Isn't it.
    For Unix it is quite easy..you may implement like this...The Issue which you are referring may be because of wrong Oracle Home or SID....(i'm not very much sure..) You may try following steps:
    1. Create a separate Unix A/c and set ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID relevant to your StandBy Database. I believe the Home would be same whereas SID would be your standby databse.
    2. Take a Cold Backup of All your database files from Production.
    3. Copy these files on separate mount points for standby Db. Put them all to relevant directory and be sure to set the Group of all these files as "SYSDBA" This is Must.
    4. And then modify your INIT.ORA file i.e. InitSID.ora file accordingly and put the file in ORACLE_HOME
    5. Login to Newly created Unix A/c. Check whether ORACLE_SID is set ot not to your standby database instance.
    6. Login to sys as sysdba and start up the database. It will by default would try to check & do for your relevant Oracle SID for this profile...

  • Standby Redolog Creation for Physical standby

    I want to migrate my primary database from one server X to standby database which i want to create on other server Y. once Primary and standby will get SYNC , i will do Fail over to make standby as primary and divert current application on standby considering as full functional Primary.
    Is it mandatory to create SRL ( Standby redo log)? or I can create physical standby without SRL? If Yes, on which side (primary or standby) i need to create SRL?
    Appreciate your help..

    Hello,
    Now, My standby database has configured. Since i had restore and recover standby database from standby controlfile instead of RMAN Duplicate. I had done following step:
    ON standby side:
    $rman target /
    RMAN> restore standby controlfile from '/app/oracle/standbyctl.ctl'
    RMAN> sql 'alter database mount standby database';
    RMAN> restore database;
    RMAN> list backup of archive log all;
    RMAN> RMAN> recover database until sequence 1670;
    SQL> alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;
    •     On Primary:
    SQL> alter system set log_archive_dest_state_2=ENABLE;
    •     On Standby:
    SQL> select sequence#,applied from v$archived_log order by sequence#;
    I am at this stage now. My primary and standby database in synchronization. As per my first thread above, we will have planned outage to move application to standby database and make it full functional primary database. once application will move on new server( standby database). we will not use current primary database anymore.
    what are the procedure i need to do on primary side and standby side when migrate application on new server.? rightnow my standby database in MOUNT mode and archive log is shipping from primary to standby. we have no dataguard broker configuration. i need to do it manually using SQL command.
