Hi,

I have been trying to set up a Data Guard system so as to test something with our application. My test was based around using the "Oracle Data Guard Concepts and Administration" documentation to set up a Physical Standby of a basic Oracle 10.2.0.3.0 installation on Red Hat 4. The basic database has the dummy data included that Oracle offers on installation.

My problem seems to be that the logs just are not shipping over when I switch log files.

On the Primary Database:
SQL> SELECT SEQUENCE#, FIRST_TIME, NEXT_TIME
  2  FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG ORDER BY SEQUENCE#;

 SEQUENCE# FIRST_TIME	   NEXT_TIME
---------- --------------- ---------------
	 4 15-JUL-09	   15-JUL-09
	 5 15-JUL-09	   15-JUL-09
	 6 15-JUL-09	   16-JUL-09
	 7 16-JUL-09	   16-JUL-09
	 8 16-JUL-09	   16-JUL-09
	 9 16-JUL-09	   16-JUL-09

... and so on

On the Standby:
SQL> SELECT SEQUENCE#, FIRST_TIME, NEXT_TIME
  2  FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG ORDER BY SEQUENCE#;

no rows selected

SQL>


The Primary (MARKTEST) can tnsping the Standby:
tnsping testmark

OK (0 msec)


And the Standby can tnsping the Primary:
tnsping marktest

OK (0 msec)


Looking at the Alert Log on the Standby machine, there are quite a lot of lines of the form "ARC<letter>: Thread not mounted".

Does anyone have any pointers as to what/where I should be looking at to solve my problem?

Thanks in advance for any help received.

What does the following show on the primary:

select destination, status, error
from v$archive_dest;

You may also want to review Oracle 10g - Manually Create a Physical Standby Database Using Data Guard.

Hi. Thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately this command doesn't work and after a google search I am still not sure what it is you want me to post.

Can you be a bit more specific?

Sorry for posting; wrong command. Pls try this

I imagine the ORA-19809 is due to the logs filling up due to not being shipped. I'm not quite sure what to do there - delete them or wait until they start shipping. Any recommendations?

Thanks for the link. I did read that earlier but I found that it was missing some steps/assumed a bit too much so I went with the official Oracle documentation instead.

Try to increase the value of db_recovery_file_dest_size.

Sorry for not replying last week. I was ill.

I have now increased the size of db_recovery_file_dest_size so I am no longer getting complaints from there.

Here are the alert logs:

Thanks for the reply.

The primary was started with a normal "startup".

The standby was started with "startup mount" followed by "ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;".

Two switches were performed on the primary using "ALTER SYSTEM SWITCH LOGFILE;"

These are the alert logs after that:

above is from Primary, but no actual destination is specified similar to below

log_archive_dest_2 = SERVICE=MARKTEST LGWR ASYNC
VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE)



This in the init file for the primary:

LOG_ARCHIVE_CONFIG='DG_CONFIG=(MARKTEST,TESTMARK)'
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1=
 'LOCATION=/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/oradata/MARKTEST/ 
  VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES)
  DB_UNIQUE_NAME=MARKTEST'
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2=
 'SERVICE=TESTMARK LGWR ASYNC
  VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) 
  DB_UNIQUE_NAME=TESTMARK'
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_1=ENABLE
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2=ENABLE


Which was based on this in the Oracle documentation:

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/create_ps.htm

DB_NAME=chicago
DB_UNIQUE_NAME=chicago
LOG_ARCHIVE_CONFIG='DG_CONFIG=(chicago,boston)'
CONTROL_FILES='/arch1/chicago/control1.ctl', '/arch2/chicago/control2.ctl'
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_1=
 'LOCATION=/arch1/chicago/ 
  VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES)
  DB_UNIQUE_NAME=chicago'
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_2=
 'SERVICE=boston LGWR ASYNC
  VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) 
  DB_UNIQUE_NAME=boston'
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_1=ENABLE
LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2=ENABLE
REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE=EXCLUSIVE
LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT=%t_%s_%r.arc
LOG_ARCHIVE_MAX_PROCESSES=30


Is there something wrong with what I wrote? Perhaps I have screwed up the syntax somewhere?
