Answer 1

[on primary]
step-1 check if archiving is enable
SQL> archive log list;
Database log mode              Archive Mode
Automatic archival             Enabled
Archive destination            /PGHProdDB/archive/paceview/
Oldest online log sequence     52
Next log sequence to archive   54
Current log sequence           54
step-2
sqlplus> ALTER DATABASE force logging;step-3
connect to rman
take an full backup
RMAN RUN {
allocate channel d1 type disk;
backup format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/df_t%t_s%s_p%p' database;
sql 'alter system archive log current';
backup format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/al_t%t_s%s_p%p' archivelog all;
backup current controlfile for standby format '/u01/backups/PRIMARY/sb_t%t_s%s_p%p';
release channel d1;
step-4
now copying initpfile,pwdfile on appropriate destination and rename it.
step 5
now create listener on standby db side::
and restart it by ----
lsnrctl reload
and login to primary db and register listener information in tnsfile.ora---
standby=
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.1.13)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = standby)Step 6 Startup the standby
SQL> startup nomount pfile='/u01/app/oracle/admin/PRIMARY/pfile/init.ora';step 7
though our primary db is ready to connect with standby db
[oracle@PGH-DB ~]$ rman target / auxiliary sys/tiger@standby

connected to target database: primary (DBID=2092349485)
connected to auxiliary database (not started)
RMAN> run {
allocate channel C1 device type disk;
allocate auxiliary channel C2 device type disk;
duplicate target database for standby nofilenamecheck;
}When this completes
Make sure you shutdown the database and then switch the ORACLE_SID=STANDBY
when you perform that much let me know :)
