standby_file_management如果设置为auto，则primary端创建表空间或添加数据文件时，standby端将自动添加，反之如果设置为manual，则必须要重建standby端的控制文件

SQL> create tablespace test datafile '/oracle/oradata/ebank/test01.dbf' size 10m;

Tablespace created.

SQL> show parameter standby

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
standby_archive_dest                 string      /tools/archivelog
standby_file_management              string      AUTO
SQL>  select a.name ts_name,b.name file_name,bytes/1024/1024 from v$tablespace a,v$datafile b where a.ts#=b.ts#;

TS_NAME                        FILE_NAME                                BYTES/1024/1024

SQL> alter system switch logfile;

System altered.

在standby段的alert日志里可以看到：

Redo Shipping Client Connected as PUBLIC

Successfully added datafile 5 to media recovery

Media Recovery Waiting for thread 1 sequence 487 (in transit)

当在standby端将该参数设置为manual时，

SQL> alter system set standby_file_management=manual;

System altered.

此时在主端添加一个数据文件，并切换日志，在standby端的alert日志里可以发现：

Primary database is in MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE mode

MRP0: Background Media Recovery process shutdown (stby)

此时需要手动同步standby端的控制文件，具体操作：
（1）在primary端生成standby控制文件，并传到standby端，手动添加数据文件,否则在alert日志里将报错：

MRP进程已经shutdown了

执行手动创建数据文件：

SQL> alter database create datafile '/oracle/oradata/ebank/test03.dbf' as '/oracle/oradata/ebank/test03.dbf';

Database altered.

重启standby端数据库，查看alert日志：
Redo Shipping Client Connected as PUBLIC

可见，MPR进程已经正常工作了。

查看两端数据文件的checkpoint时间，发现已经一致：

primary：
