-bash-4.1$

8.Create standby log file in production database testdb

Configure the primary database to receive redo data, by adding the standby logfiles to the primary


alter database add standby logfile group 6 '/data0/oradata/testdb/sby_redo01.log' size 50M;
alter database add standby logfile group 7 '/data1/oradata/testdb/sby_redo02.log' size 50M;
alter database add standby logfile group 8 '/data2/oradata/testdb/sby_redo03.log' size 50M;
alter database add standby logfile group 9 '/data3/oradata/testdb/sby_redo04.log' size 50M;
alter database add standby logfile group 10 '/data0/oradata/testdb/sby_redo05.log' size 50M;

9. Create folder in standby server

mkdir /apps/oracle/admin/testdbsb
mkdir /apps/oracle/admin/testdbsb/adump
mkdir /data0/oradata/testdbsb/
mkdir /data1/oradata/testdbsb/
mkdir /data2/oradata/testdbsb/
mkdir /data3/oradata/testdbsb/
mkdir /archive1/oradata/testdbsb/

10. Put standby database in recovery mode
