Data Guard Configuration
599290Apr 22 2008 — edited Apr 22 2008We used Grid Control to create a dataguard physical standby database with success after much heartache. We have a RAC database with a single instance standby. We are getting on the non-primary instances on the RAC cluster "ORA-16532 Data Guard broker configuration does not exist." This is because Grid placed the broker configuration on the primary node in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory, of which is not in a shared oracle home.
We are attempting to copy the data guard configuration into ASM so we can point the parameters to the shared copy on ASM. How do we get the configuration files into ASM from the file system?
We have tried using XML DB with FTP to place the file in /sys/asm/<DISKNAME>/<SID>/DATAGUARDCONFIG but we get a ORA-31197 (Error in processing file ...) and an ORA-32055 invalid file type. How can we upload it and tell asm the filetype?
