I also found dg easy to setup. My problems come from configuring dgmgrl.
Getting the network configuration syntactically correct is difficult.
Which is why the documentation on the subject is sparse or non existent
You have:
DB_NAME
DB_UNIQUE_NAME
INSTANCE_NAME
SERVICE_NAMES
GLOBAL_DBNAME
SID
SID_NAME
Getting the init.ora, listener.ora and tnsnames to line up is tricky at best
If anyone has working example of the 3 files lined up so dgmgrl performs a clean switchover I'd like to see it.
When it works, it’s fantastic. Getting a clear doc of how thats done
-for me - has been the problem
links Ive used
dgmgrl cli

dg

When dgmgrl works it looks like this
###############################################DGMGRL> switchover to 'ORCL_p4p';
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
Operation requires shutdown of instance "orcl" on database "ORCL_p4p"
Shutting down instance "orcl"...

Switchover succeeded, new primary is "ORCL_p4p"
