To create standby database using oracle 10g standared edition

my producation database is oracle 10G standard edition .Can i implement a oracle dataguard or standby database using standard edition licenses.if standby database is possiable in standard edition .what are the steps for creating a standby database using oracle 10g standard edition.

General answer is http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/license.102/b14199/editions.htm#BABJICBB.
For Data Guard you cannot :
- use instance parameters to automatically send archived redo logs
- use instance parameters to resolve archived redo logs gaps
- create a logical standby
- use SQL statements to do switchover / failover
- use Data Guard Broker.

Can i create a standby database in oracle 10g standared edition ?

what are the steps required for creating a standby database using oracle 10g standard edition. or Any other feature for mirroring database in oracle 10g standared edition

Dear mithun,
Please read the following online documentation;
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/standby.htm
+"+
+2.3.2 Oracle Software Requirements+
+The following list describes Oracle software requirements for using Data Guard:+
+* Oracle Data Guard is available only as a feature of Oracle Database Enterprise Edition. It is not available with Oracle Database Standard Edition. This means the same release of Oracle Database Enterprise Edition must be installed on the primary database and all standby databases in a Data Guard configuration.+
+Note:+
+It is possible to simulate a standby database environment with databases running Oracle Database Standard Edition. You can do this by manually transferring archived redo log files using an operating system copy utility or using custom scripts that periodically send archived redo log files from one database to the other. The consequence is that this configuration does not provide the ease-of-use, manageability, performance, and disaster-recovery capabilities available with Data Guard.+

How to create a new DataBase using Oracle 10g Express Edition???

Hello, I am new to Oracle, I am used to Microsoft SQL Server (Enterprise Manager).
Here in Oracle I do not get how do I create a DataBase, and then create tables on it.
could anyone please explain to me how to do it?

A SQL Server database is roughly equivalent to an Oracle schema.
You should rarely need to create a new database. If you do need to create a database, get a 'for fee' edition of Oracle and use the dbca tool (Database Configuration Assistant) to do that. In fact, you are only allowed to have one XE database on the machine.
However, you can create as many schemas in an existing Oracle database as you need. (One schema, owned by userid SYS, is roughly equal to your 'master catalog'.)
You can create other schemas simply by
1) creating a userid that will own the schema (one designated for maintenance of the schema);
2) grant that userid appropriate privileges, such as 'CREATE TABLE', 'CREATE VIEW' as shown in the SQL Reference manual under the GRANT section;
3) provide that userid with a quota in one or more tablespaces (see the CREATE USER command in the SQL Reference manual);
4) create the objects, such as tabels, views, sequences, stored procs and functions, etc. (as in the SQL Reference manual);
5) create the users who will access the objects, and grant them the CREATE SESSION capability (as in the SQL Reference manual);
6) grant access (select, update, execute, etc.) on the schema objects to these users (as in the SQL Reference manual);
7) if desired, create synonyms on the schema objects so the users do not need to use fully qualified syntax such as "SELECT col FROM schema.table;" (as in the SQL Reference manual).
In case you are interested in looking at the SQL Reference manual, it can be found at http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=1 ;-)

Standby Database on Oracle 10g Standard Edition ?

Hi All,
Is it possible to do Oracle Stand By Database on Oracle 10g SE ?
I read somewhere in this group that we can do standby database even in SE by writing a script that copy the archive log to the secondary server.
Is this approach reliable enough to be done in production ?
Does anybody have sample of the script ?
Thank you for your help,
xtanto

Hi,
Well, I think I'd beter put the scripts right there. Remember, they have been tested under MY environment, using MY releases, MY O.Ses. It's up to you to check whether the're valid for you. They are provided as is, for sample.
There are 4 files:
. generic.sh : you can duplicate this file in order to set up as many standby as needed, etc. It calls other scripts in order to:
. archivemove.sh : Get the archived redo logs to the standby host
. recover.sh : Synch the standby
. getrecid.sql : get the maximum progess point on the Manual Standby (used by archivemove.sh)
These scripts are used from the standby host. Remember to throughly check it before relying on it for production.
generic.sh
#!/bin/sh
# Be sure environment variable are set. If not, then it might fail!
# These environment variables are those for the Manual Physical Standby host

Create an Object in Logical standby database in Oracle 10G

Hi,
I have logical standby database in oracle 10g R2 for reporting purpose.Now i want to create procedure in logical standby which is use to create new temp table in logical standby and contained data generated from select operation on existing table.
Can i create a new user in logical standby database,add new tablespace in logical standby which can insert,update and delete data in standby database base table?
kindly provide me the steps to implement all this.What will be effect if i set guard_Status in v$database is NONE in logical standby?
Thanks,
Shital Patel

Hi Shital,
Guard_status protects the data from being changed.
ALL- By default it is not possible for a non-privileged user to modify data on a data guard SQL apply database. This is because the database guard is automatically set to ALL.
With this level of security, only SYS user can modify the data.
STANDBY- When you set this level of security, users are able to modify data that is not maintained by the Logical apply engine.
NONE permits any users to access the standby database as long as they have correct privileges. This is the normal security for all data in the database.
You can change the guard status value from ALL to NONE in order to allow non-privileged users to modify data and Yes you can create user and extra tablespace in logical standby database..this is what the one of advantage of using Logical standby database.
SQL> ALTER DATABASE GUARD NONE;
Thanks

Why i can't not create new database in oracle 10g express

why i can't not create new database in oracle 10g express?
should i use oracle 11g standard edition?
thanks

In Oracle a schema is what a 'database' is in Sqlserver.
And if you would have been aware about the limitations of XE, you would have known you can only create *1* (one) database using Oracle XE.
However, probably you don't need a new database at all, and a schema will suffice.

How to create new database on Oracle 10g

Hi All,
Can any one tell me how to create new database on oracle 10g.
Thanks in Advance for your help.

again some confusion here.....
u said u need a new database in your first post and now you saying u need a new schema..
one database has many schemas(users)..... ex: scott,sys,system are few of them...
now it depends you need seperate database for test,dev environment - this is in the case u have many schemas under each database and many tables(objects) under each schema.
OR
You just need a separate schema (in same db) for test,dev environment...where in you will have multiple tables in each schema...U need to know the dba credentials of the db to create a new schema.
ideally u need to have different database...You can create one with out sys/system(oracle users) password as these passwords are db dependent.
what you need is access to the any machine where server is installed(can be the same mc where you have your dev db or a diff machine) and that will be the machine where your db will be installed (can do it through database configuration assistance),ofcourse you will need windows authentication for this.
so you login to the same machine or access it from your machine using remote login.
I hope that is clear.Hope i am not listing things that you already know..Just did it coz of confusion between db and schema

Creating a Database with Oracle 10 Express Edition

Hello,
I had installed Oracle Database 10g Express Edition whith linux, fedora core 4.
I want to create a new database with Oracle 10g Express Edition. How can i do this?
I know that Orcale 10g express edition have only one Database which is installed by default sid 'XE', but my database must have another name.
Thanks.

Really you need to change database name ?

Installing Discoverer with Database Version Oracle 10g Express Edition

Hello,
Is it possilbe to install Discoverer with database version Oracle 10g Express Edition? I have Oracle Fusion Middleware 11.1.1.1.0 on my Windows XP machine as well. If so, can someone please provide me a link to the Discoverer download.
Regards,
Kelly

Note that the Personal Edition of the database is 'the most powerful' version, in that it contains all features and options of the Enterprise Edition (expect RAC and Enterprise Manager packs)
As such, the Personal Edition, at a mere USD$400-500 is one of the most cost effective for-fee products that Oracle has in it's inventory. It is targeted at the developer. And it comes with the complete set of Sample Data, whereas XE has a very limited subset (since it does not support all functionality).
Express Edition is indeed free, but it is not supported, and can not be patched. OTOH it does have a lighter footprint.
Again, I am not sure whether Disco 11g is compatible with Express Edition. (It's on my schedule for December ...)

Dear user13295317,
Here is the error explanation;
Oracle Error :: TNS-12533
TNS:illegal ADDRESS parameters
Cause
An illegal set of protocol adapter parameters was specified.
In some cases, this error is returned when a connection cannot be made to the protocol transport.
Action
Verify that the destination can be reached using the specified protocol.
Check the parameters within the ADDRESS section of TNSNAMES.ORA.
Legal ADDRESS parameter formats may be found in the Oracle operating system specific documentation for your platform.
Protocols that resolve names at the transport layer (such as DECnet object names) are vulnerable to this error if not properly configured or names are misspelled.Hope That Helps.

The only difference between creating a standby for this db and others we have created is that the file system the backups are stored on is on a non-global zone shared via nfs mount.
I know that when I try and share that filesystem with other servers I get the message:
share_nfs: Cannot share filesystems in non-global zones
If the /backup filesystem is not shared with any other servers would OEM be able to read from that NGZ? The filesystem is available to connect to using ssh from other locations, but not sure how OEM handles this part of the process.
Any advice would be great.
Regards,
JP

Thanks for the reply. I thought that is what I would need to do. However this link is very useful and could resolve the issue. I have yet to raise it with the system admin guys here yet but will do and will report back on outcome.

Hello;
Generally for the connection to work you need to add something like this to the listener.ora file :
(SID_DESC =
    (global_dbname = STANDBY.hostname)
    (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2)
    (sid_name = STANDBY)
)You should stop and start the listener on the Standby after adding this. Also your tnsnames.ora must be correct on both the primary and the Standby.
Also you need an INIT for the Standby side :

RMAN>duplicate target database for standby from active database NOFILENAMECHECK;
Keys to success
1. New Standby start NOMOUNT on new password file. ( On Oracle 11 you must copy and rename the file from Primary server )
2. Hard coded listener on new Standby server.
3. Correct tnsnames.ora files.
4. Correct duplicate command.
Please consider closing some of you old answered questions

Creating standby database using data guard.

Current Env:
Oracle 11.2.0.1
ASM
Size 1.7T and growing.
I'm rebuilding a standby database and need to use rman because of a few factors. In the past, I did a file copy create a standby control file config init.ora and it always worked.
We have a database and had the stanby build; but someone issued a flashback and corrupted the standby database.
Because of the size 1.7T and growing and we are now using ASM.
My research is only showing building standby through rman using dupicate database command.
I would like to copy the cold backup to a external drive and ship it to the standby site where I'll do the restore. This is because of time and bandwith required to rebuild the standby will interfere with operaitions for the period the files are being copied.
So what would be the high level steps.
1) get the cold backup
2) create the standby control file
3) ship the data via corrier
4) restore the database
5) and this is where i'm not sure. recover the standby control file - but during the restore of the database the "normal" control file will open and perhaps do a checkpoint. therefore the standby controlfile will be usless.
6) recover the standby database.
Has anyone accomplished this?
As much specifics will be helpful. This system is operational and needs to be done right the first time.
thanks,

Thank you.
1) I'm going to off load the cold backup to an external drive and have a courier take it to the DR site.
Why, we are replicating the SAN over to the DR site. When SAN replication backs up Oracle becomes non-responsive. Therefore; sending the data over the pipe is not an option for the standby rebuild. Yea' that's the easy way to do it. But this system is operational and critical to operations; so we will not risk saturating the pipe for any period of time. The pipe got saturated one time and it was not pretty.
2) I'm running the test in my lab to make sure I can create the standby database using the cold backup and rman.
3) In the past it was easy; I got a cold backup of the data files using the same ksh scripts that have been working for 20 years. Copy the files over to the standby site, and put it into managed recovery. This technique has been working fine sense Oracle 8i days. ASM through a huge monkey wrench in the ksh script backup and now I'm forced to use rman. Hey, I'm told it's an okay product but when it comes to backups I never get fancy; that just makes things more complicated. Okay I wont complain about asm anymore, i guess there is an advantage in there somewhere.

Problem creating standby database using RMAN

I am preparing standby database on Windows environment. For the same..
1. I have taken full database,archivelog and standby control file backup on primary database.
2.Backup pieces have been moved to standby server.
3.TNS configured on both the servers.
4.connected to target as well as auxiliary database and trying to create the standby database using the below command...
duplicate target database for standby;
But I am getting the below error........

Can you please confirm if the directory E:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ORADATA\AIRPRIM is existing on standby box and rman can write to that location (free space & permissions)
If the issue is still present provide us the control_files parameter from standby..
