Error:Heartbeat failed to connect to standby Error 12541
By using rdist command, one can copy Oracle's password file from primary site to physical standby site. Even if the SYS password is same on both the servers, you must copy the password file from primary to standby.

Step 1
install rsh-server package on both the servers.

Step 2
#vi /etc/xinetd.d/rlogin
disable=no

Step 3
#service xinetd restart

Step 4
$cd $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
$rdist -c orapwcoretest oracle@:/opt/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/dbs/orapwcoretest

We can transfer password file using ftp or scp. In ftp we are going to use mput or mget functions.

By using ftp (mput) it was not working, and I was not aware of scp at that time.
With scp command we can transfer any password file without any changes. Really thanks for the update!
