Re: standby database question.

2002-10-23 Thread Rajesh . Rao

That would be the manual mode. "Recover standby database". With 8i, and the
multiple archive destinations, you have the sustained recovery mode.
"Recover managed standby database".  A sustained recovery mode will lock
your telnet window, and will be dedicated to doing just the recovery. But
then, one can always create a shell script, and run it in the background
with nohup, assuming you are on Unix.

The latest issue of Ora Magazine has a good write up on standby database in
9i, and the FAL (Is that the name?) process.

Raj

The oramag also mentiones Carl Dudley to be the DBA of the year, and also
features x$ Gopal.

Windows?

I used to do this with a 7.3.4 instance on Unix, I had a shell script
that would run every x minutes, and would first check to see it if was
already running. If not, it would do the recover automatic. It would
"fail" when it ran out of archived logs to apply, but the cron would
restart it and check for more.

Worked pretty well..

I accomplish this with the gnu screen command.  It is a pretty nice addon
that lets you detach/reattach/multiplex tty sessions.  I use this alot
for long running commands and what to go home and check on them
later.

Correct.

...though you can achieve the same thing in 8i by running the SQL*Plus or
SvrMgr process in a "backgrounded" script.  Stopping the backgrounded script
is easy using the RECOVER CANCEL command from any other session...

Vikas, you need to read the docs also, you can have the logs 
automatically shipped and applied to the standby database, it all 
depends on how you set it up.

the docs are a wonderful thing.

This status makes no difference in recovering/opening/using the
standby.  I believe the assertion in the doc is incorrect.

Please pardon my poor grammar.

I should have said...

The status of the data file (on the standby database) shows "RECOVER" unless
the standby control file is refreshed.

Why do you have to do that?  It doesn't say to do that in the
documentation.  The new datafiles are reflected in the standby
controlfile through normal recovery and by issuing the 'alter database

There is no need to re-dump and copy a new standby controlfile, and

RE: Standby database question

2002-01-25 Thread Molina, Gerardo


There is one last, but important step.

You need to recreate standby control file...

on primary:

alter database create standby controlfile as '';

ftp this new file to standby

on standby:

shutdown immediate

copy new control file to appropriate locations with correct file name.

startup nomount

alter database mount standby database

This is clearly documented in the Oracle8i Standby Database Concepts
and Administration Manual.

http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/server.817/
a76995/standbys.htm#27363

In short, you just add the tablespace to the primary, wait for the
standby to fail with ORA-01157, then issue the following command on
the standby:

SQL> alter database create datafile '' as '';

Where foo is the location of the datafile on the primary, and bar is
the location on the standby (usually the same).

If you create a tablespace with several datafiles, you will have to
issue this command a few times after recovering the standby and
waiting for the ORA-01157 each time.

Don't fall into the trap some people do where they think they have to
copy the new file over to the standby every time they create a
datafile.

This is clearly documented in the Oracle8i Standby Database Concepts
and Administration Manual.

http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle8i/doc_library/817_doc/server.817/a76995/standbys.htm#27363

In short, you just add the tablespace to the primary, wait for the
standby to fail with ORA-01157, then issue the following command on
the standby:

SQL> alter database create datafile '' as '';

Where foo is the location of the datafile on the primary, and bar is
the location on the standby (usually the same).

If you create a tablespace with several datafiles, you will have to
issue this command a few times after recovering the standby and
waiting for the ORA-01157 each time.

Don't fall into the trap some people do where they think they have to
copy the new file over to the standby every time they create a
datafile.

Standby database question

2001-02-28 Thread Joseph S. Testa

So my standby is in managed recovery mode.

i was curious internally how does oracle send the archive logs across
from primary to standby machine(they are physically separate).

i know it goes via net8, does it do some internal fopen to write it out
and apply it, or am i way out in left field here.

thanks, joe
