If you follow the documentation, you'll see you don't need to restart
the primary instance.
Make a hot backup using RMAN
Make a backup of your controlfile for standby
set up your standby database
duplicate your database for standby using RMAN
Except for sitting down during a prolonged period of time waiting,
this is all there is to it.
