step by step Oracle 12c Data Guard Failover

 Step:1 In standby database check the database role and open_mode

SQL> SELECT OPEN_MODE,PROTECTION_MODE,DATABASE_ROLE FROM V$DATABASE;

OPEN_MODE         PROTECTION_MODE      DATABASE_ROLE
-------------------- -------------------- ----------------
READ ONLY WITH APPLY MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE  PHYSICAL STANDBY

  Step:2 Check archive log gap sequence

 SQL> SELECT THREAD#, LOW_SEQUENCE#, HIGH_SEQUENCE# FROM V$ARCHIVE_GAP;

no rows selected

 Step:3 Cancel MRP process in standby database

SQL> ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE CANCEL;

Database altered. 

 Step:4 Bring up standby database as primary 

SQL> alter database recover managed standby database finish;

Database altered.

SQL> alter database activate standby database;

Database altered.

Managed recovery process has been stopped between primary and standby database and standby becomes primary database.

Step:5 Shutdown and startup database and verify database name its open mode and its role.

SQL> shutdown immediate
ORA-01109: database not open


Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.


SQL> startup
ORA-32004: obsolete or deprecated parameter(s) specified for RDBMS instance
ORACLE instance started.

Resize Redo Log size in Data Guard ( Primary and Standby) Oracle 11g


-----------Resize Redo Log in Primary Database-------

alter database drop logfile group 2;
alter database add logfile  group 2 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/redo02.log' size 5m;

alter database drop logfile group 3;
alter database add logfile  group 3 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/redo03.log' size 5m;

alter system switch logfile

alter database drop logfile group 1;

--Error Come----

ORA-01624: log 1 needed for crash recovery of instance orcl (thread 1)
ORA-00312: online log 1 thread 1: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/redo01.log'

select group#,status from v$log;

alter system checkpoint;

alter database drop logfile group 1;

alter database add logfile  group 1 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/redo01.log' size 5m;


alter database drop logfile group 4;

ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE GROUP 4 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/stby04.log' size 5m;

alter database drop logfile group 5;

ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE GROUP 5 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/stby05.log' size 5m;

alter database drop logfile group 6;

ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE GROUP 6 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/stby06.log' size 5m;

-----------Resize Redo Log in Standby Database-------

Check Database Status

SQL> select status,instance_name,database_role from v$database,v$Instance;

STATUS       INSTANCE_NAME    DATABASE_ROLE
------------ ---------------- ----------------
OPEN         orcls         PHYSICAL STANDBY

SQL>

Check if the parameter standby_file_management is set to AUTO or MANUAL on standby database. If it is not set to MANUAL, then set it.

SQL> show parameter standby_file_management

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
standby_file_management              string      auto
SQL>


SQL> alter system set standby_file_management=manual;

System altered.

SQL>
SQL> show parameter standby_file_management

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
standby_file_management              string      MANUAL
SQL>

SQL> select group#,status from v$standby_log;

    GROUP# STATUS
---------- ----------
         4 ACTIVE
         5 UNASSIGNED
         6 UNASSIGNED

SQL> select group#,status from v$log;

    GROUP# STATUS
---------- ----------------
         1 CLEARING
         2 CLEARING
         3 CURRENT

SQL> alter database drop logfile group 1;
alter database drop logfile group 1
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01156: recovery or flashback in progress may need access to files

Now to solve this issue we have cancel the managed recovery session
and set  "standby_file_management"  to manual and drop the standby redolog file  as

SQL> alter database recover managed standby database cancel ;

Database altered.

SQL>
SQL> alter database drop logfile group 1;
alter database drop logfile group 1
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01624: log 1 needed for crash recovery of instance orcls (thread 1)
ORA-00312: online log 1 thread 1: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcls/redo01.log'

SQL> select group#,status from v$log;

    GROUP# STATUS
---------- ----------------
         1 CLEARING
         2 CLEARING
         3 CURRENT


If the status of standby redolog show the "clearing_current" then we cannot drop "clearing_current" status
logs,and for that we have to sync with Primary and clear the log first before dropping as

SQL> alter database clear logfile group 1;

SQL> select group#,status from v$log;

    GROUP# STATUS
---------- ----------------
         1 UNUSED
         2 CLEARING
         3 CURRENT

SQL>  alter database drop logfile group 1;

Database altered.

SQL> alter database add logfile  group 1 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcls/redo01.log' size 5m;

Database altered.

SQL> alter database clear logfile group 2;

Database altered.

SQL>  alter database drop logfile group 2;

Database altered.

SQL> alter database add logfile  group 2 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcls/redo02.log' size 5m;
SQL> alter database add logfile  group 3 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcls/redo03.log' size 5m;

---Now Remove Standby Redolog file---

SQL> select group#,status from v$standby_log;

    GROUP# STATUS
---------- ----------
         4 UNASSIGNED
         5 ACTIVE
         6 UNASSIGNED

SQL> alter database drop standby logfile group 4;

Database altered.

SQL> ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE GROUP 4 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcls/stby04.log' size 5m;

SQL> alter database drop standby logfile group 5;

Database altered.

SQL> ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE GROUP 5 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcls/stby05.log' size 5m;

SQL> alter database drop standby logfile group 6;

SQL> ALTER DATABASE ADD STANDBY LOGFILE GROUP 6 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcls/stby06.log' size 5m;

----Now check the status of red log and standby redo log status----

SQL> select group#,status from v$standby_log;

    GROUP# STATUS
---------- ----------
         4 UNASSIGNED
         5 UNASSIGNED
         6 UNASSIGNED

SQL> select group#,status from v$log;

    GROUP# STATUS
---------- ----------------
         1 CURRENT
         2 UNUSED
         3 UNUSED

-------Check the size of redo log and standby redo log file size

SQL> select group#,sum(bytes/1024/1024)"size in MB" from v$standby_log group by group#;

    GROUP# size in MB
---------- ----------
         6          5
         4          5
         5          5

SQL> select group#,sum(bytes/1024/1024)"size in MB" from v$log group by group#;

    GROUP# size in MB
---------- ----------
         1          5
         2          5
         3          5


Once all the Standby Redo Logs and Online Redo Logs have been resize on both Primary and standby database,
set the STANDBY_FILE_MANAGEMENT to AUTO on the standby database and start the recovery (MRP) on standby database.

SQL> alter system set standby_file_management=auto;
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session using current logfile;

Database altered.

Step by step to configure Oracle DataGuard in Oracle 10g

Step by step to configure Oracle DataGuard in Oracle 10g

The Enviroment 

2 Linux servers, Oracle Distribution 2.6.9-55 EL i686 i386 GNU/Linux
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0
ssh is configured for user oracle on both nodes
Oracle Home is on identical path on both nodes

Implementation notes: 

Once you have your primary database up and running these are the steps to follow:

1.  Enable Forced Logging
2.  Create a Password File
3.  Configure a Standby Redo Log
4.  Enable Archiving
5.  Set Primary Database Initialization Parameters

Having followed these steps to implement the Physical Standby you need to follow these steps:

1.  Create a Control File for the Standby Database
2.  Backup the Primary Database and transfer a copy to the Standby node.
3.  Prepare an Initialization Parameter File for the Standby Database
4.  Configure the listener and tnsnames to support the database on both nodes
5.  Set Up the Environment to Support the Standby Database on the standby node.
6.  Start the Physical Standby Database
7.  Verify the Physical Standby Database Is Performing Properly


Step by Step Implementation of a Physical Standby Environment

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
db_unique_name                       string      whiteowl

Enable Forced Logging

In order to implement Standby Database we enable 'Forced Logging'.

This option ensures that even in the event that a 'nologging' operation is done, force logging takes precedence and all operations are logged
into the redo logs.

SQL> ALTER DATABASE FORCE LOGGING;

Database altered.  

Create a Password File

A password file must be created on the Primary and copied over to the Standby site. The sys password must be identical on both sites. This is
a key pre requisite in order to be able to ship and apply archived logs from Primary to Standby.

cd $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
[vmractest1] > orapwd file=orapwwhiteowl password=oracle force=y

Configure a Standby Redo Log

A Standby Redo log is added to enable Data Guard Maximum Availability and Maximum Protection modes. It is important to configure the
Standby Redo Logs (SRL) with the same size as the online redo logs.
In this example I'm using Oracle Managed Files, that's why I don't need to provide the SRL path and file name. If you are not using OMF's
you then must pass the full qualified name.

SQL> select * from v$logfile;

    GROUP# STATUS  TYPE    MEMBER                                                                 IS_

Enable Archiving

On 10g you can enable archive log mode by mounting the database and executing the archivelog command:

Current log sequence           94

Set Primary Database Initialization Parameters

Data Guard must use spfile, in order to configure it we create and configure the standby parameters on a regular pfile, and once it is ready we
convert it to an spfile.
Several init.ora parameters control the behavior of a Data Guard environment. In this example the Primary database init.ora is configured so
that it can hold both roles, as Primary or Standby.

SQL> create pfile='/oradisk/app01/oracle/product/10gDB/dbs/pfilewhiteowl.ora'  from spfile;

File created.

Edit the pfile to add the standby parameters, here shown highlighted:

db_name='whiteowl'
db_unique_name='whiteowl'

Cause

ORA-600[2619] is raised due to an invalid next_change# detected in archive log.

In this case, it is caused by the archive log disk space ran out on standby site, causing that archive log not fully written on disk. This lead to ORA-600[2619] when the archive log was applied.

Per standby alert log:



Waiting for all non-current ORLs to be archived...
All non-current ORLs have been archived.

Solution

1. Clear the disk space where archive log stored on standby site
