I have 2-node RAC as primary database. I have a physical standby database. My standby database was down last week. Again it was restarted on last monday. Now a peculiar thing happened. All logs are applied to standby database and it is reflected in v$archived_log as well as v$dataguard_status & alert.log. But when I query v$archived_log in primary database, all logs are showing not applied since the restart of DataGuard. RMAN is also confused to delete those files because of this and throwing errors
RMAN-08137: WARNING: archive log not deleted as it is still needed
there is no v$archived_gap and v$managed_standby showing the latest logs from primary database is being applied to standby database..
I am facing space constraints because of these log files. Is there any way to rectify this problem?
thanks in advance

Hi Taj,
Thank you for your helping hand.
Is there any need for manual apply when my Standby Dataguard is up-to-date with the primary database. I think this problem started when we give this command..
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE;
What I guess is that dataguard,instead of applying archived logs from primary database, it is applying from standby log. Because of this, v$archived_log is not updated. Archived log is being not applied to standby database because of the logs already applied from standby log.
But after doing this, my ARC0 process in the primary database is taking lot of CPU time. I am thinking to reboot the machine to take care of everything itself.
I went through lot of websites, but no one has given a proper explanation till date including METALINK!
If you have any idea, please let me know.
Thanks.
Dillip
