Problem Description
-------------------

        You are attempting to setup a standby database and automate the
        process of transferring archive logs to a remote/local site and
        are receiving the following error:
 
        Alert log (Primary Database)
        ---------
        Tue Nov  1 17:22:48 1999
        ARC2: Error attaching RFS server to standby instance at host 'SID'
        Code '16032'
        ARC2: Error creating archivelog file 'SID'
        ARC2: Completed archiving log# 2 seq# 268
        ARC2: re-scanning for new log files
        ARC2: prodding the archiver
 
        V$ARCHIVE_DEST (Primary Database)
        --------------
 
        ERROR  ORA-16032: parameter  destination string cannot be translated
 
 

Solution Description
--------------------

 
        By ensuring that standby_archive_dest is set correctly the above
        error should be resolved. Ensure that standby_archive_dest points
        to a full path which is valid.
 
                ie: standby_archive_dest="/u01/oradata/SID/arch"
 
        NOTE: Ensure you do NOT have the parameter set with the "location="
        in front of the full path as this will cause the ORA-16032.
 
 
        The ORA-16032 is raised because the ARCHn process on the primary
        site is unable to resolve standby_archive_dest if it is invalid or
        not syntactically correct.
 

Explanation
-----------
 
        The problem is that the parameter standby_archive_dest is incorrectly
        set on the standby database.
