Database altered.

Hello;
Having  USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DES set may save you at some future point. Double check these parameters on the Standby side:
FAL_SERVER=PRIMARY
STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT=AUTO
DB_UNIQUE_NAME=<your_name>
log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) DB_UNIQUE_NAME=STANDBY'
log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=PRIMARY LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) DB_UNIQUE_NAME=PRIMARY'
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_1=ENABLE
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2=DEFER
LOG_ARCHIVE_MAX_PROCESSES=8
Change log_archive_dest_ n for your service names.
