Clearing Online redo logs on the physical standby of the target

Hello

Version 11202.

Primer on computer a.
Watch on computer b.

Later note: 11.2 Data Guard physical standby failover best practices using SQL * Plus [1304939.1 ID].
 
Online redo logs on the target physical standby need to be cleared before that standby database can become a primary database. 
And later:
 
On the target physical standby run the following query to determine if the online redo logs have not been cleared... 
(1) I did not understand where I have to run the query. On computer A, computer B or?
2)
 
         Online redo logs on the target physical standby need to be CLEARED 
        
Which means that it must be DELETED? Does transaction could be lost by running the command of compensation?

Thank you

Hello again;

I would NOT use a script. The reason is that you are not sure what "switchover_status" will be returned by the database of v$.

Oracle a broker data available for a quick pass, but I'm from the old school and I want to see how thing works in SQL for awhile first.

Best regards

  • Will be online Redo Logs to sleep never used?

    Pending a physical DB, newspapers online redo will be ever written because the author of newspaper on the standby site will be inactive. Right?

  • Online Redo Log

    Hi all

    I have a question about the online redo logs.
    If the database is out of service information on recovery online logs will be lost?
    What happens if the entire database server is low because of the blackout? online redo logs is deleted? taking into account the fact that their records were not damaged.

    So my question is: the online redo logs fade in all cases? on the database shutdown or restart the database server?

    NO.

    NO.

    So my question is: the online redo logs fade in all cases? on the database shutdown or restart the database server?

    They fade is an administrator issues the command
    change the database to clear log file group;

    They are your life insurance, so Oracle erase.

  • Separate ASM diskgroup Online redo logs

    Version: 11.2.0.3

    Platform: Solaris 10

    One of the guys support Hitachi suggested to create a group of separate drives for the online redo logs. His reasoning was that ORLs was writing only the files and it would be better to put into a group of separate disk.

    What do you think guys?

    What do you think guys?

    Well, one additional DG would require additional disks.  Hmm.  And who is the seller who would be purchased these discs?

    I guess that in a situation of extreme performance, there may be some merit in placing redo it online on a separate ASM disk group so that the underlying disks could be managed in a higher priority of the Hitachi (?) SAN.  But that would only be justified if written again online has been the major bottleneck in your system.

  • Cold backup with online redo logs

    I'm working on 10G in AIX for a single instance
    It's just a general db backup & restore issue, but I have something confused.

    I'll take a cold backup with my database ARCHIVELOG.
    No wonder why make a backup of cold because it's a test database that can suffer from loss of data and the time during backup.
    I read some guides. They all mentioned to back up all the data files and control files.
    When restoring I copy all saved data files and control files to the default location.
    Then mount boot;
    Is the last step before opening the database recover database until cancel;
    For the acknowledgement, I do the database recovery command, because again the online newspapers were not saved, so we must recover in order to reset the redo logs.
    For my question, I would be in a position of order recovery of database, then directly the database starts, if I backed up online redo logs and copy the default location when restoring?
    However, I have read a lot of documents that mentions that it is not proposed to backup online redo logs. Is it simply the case that ONLY applied in the backup hot? Do you think all that for my case, cold backup online redo logs is recommended?

  • Standby Redo logs and the Directory Structure in the Backup Site

  • How to replace the members of the Group missing redo log after the failure of a support

    Hello

    I'm testing a disk failure scenario.  I had recovery multiplexes on three sites (Windows drive letters) logs; one of the three locations also contained the data files.  I deleted the Windows player that contained data files and saw a restoring with RMAN.   All is well except that redo log members who are found on the occult Windows disk are of course still missing; the database opens, etc., but puts messages like this in the ALERT.log:

    ORA-00321: log thread 2 1, cannot update log file header
    ORA-00312: wire 2 1 online journal: ' F:\APP\NGORA12CR2SRV\ORADATA\ORATEST5\ONLINELOG\O1_MF_2_BW4B5MY0_. JOURNAL"


    What is the 'right' way to replace missing limbs?  Just get all the new groups of newspapers with new members on all three discs?  Carefully copy the LOG files representing missing members of one of the other sites?  I add new members at this location and remove existing members (missing)?


    Is how important it?

  • datafiles and redo logs on the same drive

    Hi guys,.

    >

    >

    I really think if he actually any challenge when the first of all oracle can only writes files 1 redo log at a time.
    http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E11882_01/server.112/e25494/onlineredo001.htm
    >
    Database only Oracle uses redo log files at the same time to store redo records written since the restore log buffer by progression. Log roll forward LGWR is preparing actively to is called the log during recovery.
    >

    If the process flow, I got after reading the chapters is

    When LGWR fills a log file of redo (roll forward records) then there will be a log switch + control points where writing for data blocks occur. There seems to be a flow series rather than a simultaneous sort of flow. So I don't really understand it when he speaks of contention will take place when records of data and files written redo which is the redo log file are on the same disks.

    Just to confirm with you guys, whenever there is a switch of newspaper one point of control occurs too right.
    http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E11882_01/server.112/e25494/onlineredo002.htm? You can search checkpoint to access the section she made mention of this documentation.

    Think about this:

    Restore means to keep the information around in case you need to re-do (recovery or standby mode, i.e. the continuous collection). Updates as you do in a broad sense will be so potentially being twice, once for the data files and once to do it again. I'm sure you understand that the data is written in memory, and then later to the data by the writer of the db files, while there could be many more group of writing data, or they may even be long delayed. In addition, the data files are read at random, so you can't really think again in series compared to the data. Do it again is series, archiving is set, but the data is random, and random how depends on how your system is used.

    So that means all the type of reads and writes per redo and archive is fundamentally different from data and cancel. In the first case, you want to be able to breath out as I/O that you can, for the latter, you want to be able to randomly reading or writing at different times, with Oracle being smart enough to do a bit of it in memory and optimistic enough to make assumptions on when to do things and quite lazy for not doing everything right. Roll forward is critical.

    A while ago, someone pointed out that the e/s modern buffered in memory, do not really worry about this, because all the work required to set up and maintain it after spending records, fees are not much better than striping and mirroring everything (you can google SAMI). This is true to a point, and we can debate endlessly about RAID types and their effects on performance and how their buffering makes [url http://www.baarf.com/] useless BAARF. But the real debate is, where is the point that you should use separate to redo and data devices? In the real world, we often receive a standard hardware configuration, which works very well until it's not. A disk or controller will puff in a RAID-5 can happen "is not" real quick.

    You should probably take two thoughts:

    The docs are pretty General, and some old tips do not apply, may have transformed into myth or perhaps too general to be meaningful.

    There is always something in the db, and the more things underway, less you can make generalizations about the serialization.
