Hello,

I am trying to configure physical standby on rhel 5, oracle 11GR2 EE. My standby db is not in sync with primary. While i try to troubleshoot, I do not get output from v$archived_log view in standby.

On Primary:
SQL> SELECT sequence#, first_time, next_time
FROM v$archived_log
ORDER BY sequence#; 2 3

SEQUENCE# FIRST_TIME NEXT_TIME

On standby:
SQL> SELECT sequence#, first_time, next_time, applied
FROM v$archived_log
ORDER BY sequence#; 2 3

no rows selected

Could someone suggest me please what am I doing wrong? Thanks for your time.

Hello Blackswan,

Yes the primary and the standby db was down for almost 4 months. In this dataguard setup - opl@vm2 (primary) and opl2@vm3 (standby).

The alert log of primary db is filled with heartbeat failure.

I am able to do tnsping the standby db from primary and vice versa:

listeners on both the servers are up.
