Cannot scp a password file between virtual machines

974641May 27 2013 — edited May 30 2013

Hi all!

I am trying to test a Data Guard configuration on two appropriately configured Oracle Open Days images on Virtual Box. Unfortunately when trying to copy the password file from the primary to the standby using the following command.....

scp orapworcl oracle@dg2:/home/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_2/dbs

......I get the following error/message (because it isn't an error as such...)

All passwords are oracle or noted if otherwise.

Could it be that this is a functionality that is turned off for these images? It would be really helpful to get this going!

NOTE:
Both machines have statically assigned IPAddresses
TNSPING and PING show the other machine to be alive and databases "accessible"
No passwords have been changed
The Oracle version is 11.2.0.3

Many thank for your help in advance!

Regards,

Kev
