The documentation on dataguard (Dataguard concepts and administration) is quite verbose on
the matter. You should follow that step by step.

You can find the documentation at

http://tahiti.oracle.com/

(Registration required, but the best investment you can make regarding oracle)

If you have trouble with specific steps, let us know but after you've read the relevant
documentation.

That's the public beta for the next Release. I found it quite amazing that the final linux version
made it in June and since then only a beta for Windows was made available.

However, Oracle Open World is in about 3 weeks, so I'd expect some more versions to be available
around that time.

Hi, Thank You for help and patience,

I intented to do standby on standard version (no data guard) but ok, first
I try to follow procedure from Oracle Data Guard Concepts and
Administration, chapter 3 Creating a Physical Standby Database,
unfortunetly still dont know how should I create stanby from backup
there is:
3.2 Creating Physical Standby Database
3.2.1 backup database
3.2.2 creating contrlo file
3.2.3 initialization parameter (pfile)
!!3.2.4 copy files from primary system to the standby system!! /just system
copy backup, standby, initialization parameters/
3.2.5 set up envirnoment
step1 windows based service
step 2 create password file
step 3 create listener
step 4 enable broken connection detection
step 5 create ora net service names (for log transport i think)
step 6 create server parameter /standby/

and :::
3.2.6 start physical standby database
step 2 start physical standby database ( SQL> startup open read only)
/etc...

thats all? what for first i did backup?
or when i load backup or ....

or just i dont understand one thing, one small part of DBA....
heh sorry,

first i'll try with enterprise and Oracle Data Guard Concepts and
Administration step by step

regards

Dariusz

You made the backup, you put the files in place on the standby and you had your
controlfile created using 'alter database create standby controlfile...'
so yes, that's basically all there is to do.

I think your confusion comes from not really understanding what standby
does, which is simply put (although that changed quite a bit from 8i to 10g)
to apply all redo information to the standby destination. So you create
a backup, and tell oracle to constantly apply redo as soon as it finds it.

It's confusing as long as one doesn't understand what the files involved
actually do, so I'd suggest a roundtrip to the concepts guide at tahiti.oracle.com.

It certainly will make matters more easy. But so does understanding what you do ;-)
