RE: rman/standby

Ravindra,
Two thoughts

1)      Why not copy the archivelogs as they are created by setting the log_archive_dest_1 parameter in your init.ora. This will make 2 copies of the archivelog file, the 2nd one of which can be either be local or to the remote server.

2)      In RMAN is it not possible to put a host command in your script prior to the 2nd backup command.This host command can then unix cp the files to an alternate directory or FTP as appropriate

I have configured a standby database operating in "manual mode" for our production database.
I will have to apply the archive logs manually for the standby database.

The Archive logs that are genarated on the production server is backed up by RMAN/netbackup and deleted after the backup.I have the stopped the deletion of archive files from the RMAN script.

I want to find the best way of getting both RMAN/netbackup to happen and also delete
the archive logs.But before they are deleted they need to be copied to a seperate
directory so that I can apply those backed up files to the standby database.I want to
make sure that I don't loose any of the archive files that the standby database needs
to be in sync with the production database inclucing the current archive logs that
may be backed up on the production database.

The rman script is like this
run {
allocate channel t1 type 'SBT_TAPE';
backup
  incremental level 1
  tag Dialy_Incremental_Backup_Level1
  filesperset 5
  format 'Data_%d_%s_%p_%t'

    (database);
  sql 'alter system archive log current';
backup
  filesperset 20
  format 'Arch_%d_%s_%p_%t'

#  (archivelog all delete input);
   (archivelog all);
}

How do I do it.?

Thanks
Ravindra
