Oracle Dataguard physical Standby configuration in 19c:(Active method-without using rman backup)
Overview steps:
Step:1 we have to enable the archive log mode ,flashback on primary databases.
Step:2 Then enable the force logging option.By enabling the force logging option it helps us to capture all the changes made in the database and available for recovery in the redo logs.
Step:3 Add the redolog files for standby database,it is required when you are configuring the standby for maximum protection.
Step:4 Add the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora entries in both primary and standby sides.
Step:5 Change the some set of parameters in primary side,you can change these parameters either by sql or directly make changes in the pfile.
Step:6 Move the password file,pfile from primary to standby using scp.(we can also create the pfile in standby side also by having a single parameter db_name in it)
Step:7 create the directory structure in standby similar to the primary side.
Step:8 Start the standby side database in nomount using the pfile.
Step:9 Connect to the RMAN and duplicate the primary database using the command
duplicate target database for standby from active database dorecover nofilenamecheck;
Step:10 Now our standby database is ready for read only purpose.
Step:11 Then connect to the standby database and start the MRP process using alter database recover managed standby database using current logfile disconnect; This command is used to apply the log files from primary to standby.
Step:12 Verify the current log sequence in both primary and standby sides.
Do the following set of changes in primary side:
Step:1 Enable the archive log mode in the primary database.
SQL> alter database archivelog; Database altered
SQL> archive log list; Database log mode Archive Mode Automatic archival Enabled Archive destination USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST Oldest online log sequence 3 Next log sequence to archive 5 Current log sequence 5
Step:2 Enable the force logging.
SQL>alter database force logging; Database altered
Step:3 Flashback should be enabled in primary database.
ALTER DATABASE FLASHBACK ON; Database altered
Check the archive log,force_logging,flashback is enabled.
SQL> select name,force_logging,flashback_on,log_mode from v$database; NAME FORCE_LOGGING FLASHBACK_ON LOG_MODE --------- --------------- ------------- ---------- PROD YES YES ARCHIVELOG
Step:4 Add the Standby redo log files for standby side.
SQL> alter database add standby logfile thread 1 group 4('/u01/app/oracle/oradata/redo04.log')size 50m;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database add standby logfile thread 1 group 5('/u01/app/oracle/oradata/redo05.log')size 50m;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database add standby logfile thread 1 group 6('/u01/app/oracle/oradata/redo06.log')size 50m;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database add standby logfile thread 1 group 7('/u01/app/oracle/oradata/redo07.log')size 50m;
Database altered.
Step:5 set the log archive config parameter.
SQL> alter system set log_archive_config='DG_config=(prod,prodstdby)'; System altered.
SQL> show parameter log_archive_config NAME TYPE VALUE ------------------- ----------- ----------------------------- log_archive_config string DG_config=(prod,prodstdby)
SQL> show parameter log_archive_dest_2 NAME TYPE VALUE ------------------------------- ----------- --------------------------- log_archive_dest_2 string SERVICE=standby NOAFFIRM ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) DB_UNIQUE_NAME=prodstdby log_archive_dest_20 string log_archive_dest_21 string log_archive_dest_22 string log_archive_dest_23 string log_archive_dest_24 string log_archive_dest_25 string log_archive_dest_26 string NAME TYPE VALUE --------------------------------- ---------- -------------------------- log_archive_dest_27 string log_archive_dest_28 string log_archive_dest_29 string
set the log_archive_dest_1 and log_archive_dest_2 parameter respectively.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_dest_1='location=/u01/app/oracle/recovery_area/ valid_for=(all_logfiles,all_roles) db_unique_name=prod' SCOPE=SPFILE; System altered.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_dest_2='service=prodstdby async valid_for=(online_logfiles,primary_role) db_unique_name=prodstdby' SCOPE=SPFILE; System altered.
Step:6 Set the log archive format = ‘%t_%s_%r.arc ,it determines the name of the archive log file it comes into role when archive log is enabled.
SQL> alter system set log_archive_format='%t_%s_%r.arc' scope=spfile; System altered.
Step:7 configure the log_archive_process to 30 ,it prevents to avoid any runtime overhead of invoking additional ARCn process,you can set the LOG_ARCHIVE_MAX_PROCESSES
SQL> alter system set log_archive_max_processes=30; System altered.
Step:8 register the fal_server and fal_client
SQL> alter system set fal_server=prodstdby; System altered. SQL> alter system set fal_client=prod; System altered.
Step:9 The standby_file_management initialization parameter plays an important role in the recovery process.
SQL> alter system set standby_file_management=auto; System altered.
Step:10 change the remote_login_password file as exclusive.
SQL> show parameter remote_login_passwordfile NAME TYPE VALUE ------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------ remote_login_passwordfile string EXCLUSIVE
Step:11 db_file_name_convert and log_file_name_convert, converts the filename of a
new datafile and logfile respectively on the primary database to a filename on the
standby database.
SQL> alter system set db_file_name_convert='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/prod/','/u01/app/oracle/oradata/prodstdby/' scope=spfile; System altered. SQL> alter system set log_file_name_convert='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/prod/','/u01/app/oracle/oradata/prodstdby/' scope=spfile; System altered.
Step:12 Configure the tns and listener files on both primary and standby databases.
Listener entry in the primary database.
LISTENER = (DESCRIPTION_LIST = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.177.133)(PORT = 1521)) (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521)) ) ) SID_LIST_LISTENER = (SID_LIST = (SID_DESC = (GLOBAL_DBNAME = prod) (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1) (SID_NAME = prod) ) ) ADR_BASE_LISTENER = /u01/app/oracle
tnsnames entry in the primary database.
prod = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.177.133)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = prod) (GLOBAL_NAME = prod) ) ) prodstdby = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.177.132)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = prod) (GLOBAL_NAME = prod) ) )
Listener entry in the standby database.
LISTENER = (DESCRIPTION_LIST = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.177.132)(PORT = 1521)) (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521)) ) ) SID_LIST_LISTENER = (SID_LIST = (SID_DESC = (GLOBAL_DBNAME = prod) (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1) (SID_NAME = prod) ) ) ADR_BASE_LISTENER = /u01/app/oracle
tnsnames entry in the standby database.
prodstdby = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.177.132)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = prod) (GLOBAL_NAME = prod) ) ) prod = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.177.133)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = prod) (GLOBAL_NAME = prod) ) )
Step:13 ping your primary and standby databases from one to another.

Step:14 create the similar directory structures in standby side as of in primary.
/u01/app/oracle/admin/prodstdby/adump /u01/app/oracle/oradata/prodstdby /u01/app/oracle/fast_recovery_area/prodstdby
Step:15 Transfer the password files,pfiles to the standby side through scp.
[oracle@primary dbs]$ scp orapwprod initprod.ora oracle@192.168.177.132:/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1/dbs The authenticity of host '192.168.177.132 (192.168.177.132)' can't be established.

RMAN>
Yes,we have created the physical standby database successfully.
Step:19 Then mount the database and open the database in the read only mode.check the name,open_mode,database_role in the standby database,in the role it should have the value as physical_standby.
SQL> select name,open_mode,database_role from v$database; NAME OPEN_MODE DATABASE_ROLE --------- --------------------- ---------------- PROD READ ONLY PHYSICAL STANDBY
Step:20 Check for the max(sequence#) from the v$archived_log view in both primary and standby databases.
SQL> select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log; MAX(SEQUENCE#) -------------- 8
Step:21 Apply the log files using MRP process.(in standby)
SQL> alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session; Database altered.
Step:22 We can check the difference in sequence using the following query.
SELECT ARCH.THREAD# "Thread", ARCH.SEQUENCE# "Last Sequence Received", APPL.SEQUENCE# "Last Sequence Applied", (ARCH.SEQUENCE# - APPL.SEQUENCE#) "Difference" FROM (SELECT THREAD# ,SEQUENCE# FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG WHERE (THREAD#,FIRST_TIME ) IN (SELECT THREAD#,MAX(FIRST_TIME) FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG GROUP BY THREAD#)) ARCH, (SELECT THREAD# ,SEQUENCE# FROM V$LOG_HISTORY WHERE (THREAD#,FIRST_TIME ) IN (SELECT THREAD#,MAX(FIRST_TIME) FROM V$LOG_HISTORY GROUP BY THREAD#)) APPL WHERE ARCH.THREAD# = APPL.THREAD# ORDER BY 1; SQL> Thread Last Sequence Received Last Sequence Applied Difference ---------- ---------------------- --------------------- ---------- 1 8 8 0
