Create Single Instance Standby Database for RAC Database

Create single instance standby database for RAC Database

Here I created a physical standby database drdb for RAC database racdb instance names racdb1 and racdb2, server names: - NODE1 and NODE2.

PRIMARY RAC DATABASE INSTANCE RACDB1 IN HOST MACHINE NODE1PRIMARY RAC DATABASE INSTANCE RACDB2 IN HOST MACHINE NODE2

CREATING A STANDBY DATABASE IN SERVER NODE2 WITH NAME DRDB

ASSUMPTION:Primary:

1. The RAC Primary Database is in fully operating condition in Archivelog mode using ASM storage (shared location) as archivelog destination.2. The Primary Database is using ASM as Storage and OMFs.3. Listener LISTENER has already been created.

Steps in primary database Servers:-

1. Database must in Archivelog mode. 2. Enable Force Logging. 3. Create the Standby Redo logs. 4. Create a password file for all instances (Password must same in all nodes). 5. Update listener.ora file to include SID information on each node in cluster. 6. Verify cluster Service is available. 7. Verify TNSNAMES.ORA file. 8. Modify init.ora Parameters For DataGuard Configuration. 9. Create temporary directory to hold the RMAN backup of this database. 10. Backup the Primary Database for Standby. 11. Copy the Primary Database backup to the standby database server to create standby database.

Steps in Standby database server:-

1. Create required folders and directories.2. Modify the init.ora parameter on standby database.3. Create a password file (Password must same as primary database instances) 4. Update listener.ora file to include SID information5. Add required TNS entries for standby database on all servers.

6. Verify TNSNAMES.ORA file.7. Create standby database.[oracle@node1 dbs]$ . oraenvORACLE_SID = [black] ? racdb1The Oracle base for ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1 is /u01/app/oracle

=======================================================================

1. Create required folder for drdb database and also add an entry in the /etc/oratab for drdb database.2. Create a password file for drdb database (must have similar password like primary RAC database).3. Add required tns entries in the tnsnames.ora and listener entry in the listener.ora file4. Take a RMAN backup of target database and target database controlfile from any one of the RAC node5. SCP the backup to the standby database host machine to create standby database.
