Re: Data Guard question

It looks to me like you might have changed a log_archive_dest_n parameter via 'alter system' rather than via the dataguard broker. Compare a 'show parameter' from sqlplus to a dgmgrl>show database verbose (although you may have to go a bit more detailed). When using the broker. there are certain parameters related to dataguard that should be managed from the broker itself, and not changed outside of it.
