Dataguard (read-only with apply) and standby side archivelog cksum

Hi,


MRP has been hung since 5 hours. The lag grows. MRP says waiting for log. RFS is shipping all logs.

The primary crashed and was re-booted. Dataguard broker has the standby database with mode 'APPLY-ON', but MRP was hung.

We only come to know when our script runs.

Alert logs MRP hangs at this point

I stop the database and start it, everything comes back to normal and the database catches up. Doesnt even copy the archivelogs (which by the way are deleted at the primary already). Why does MRP get hung like that? There is no corruption!

Also in a real-time query on environment (Read only with apply) the checksum of the archivelogs on the standby side are different. Is that normal?
I understand that the primary writes directly into the standby log file, which in turn creates the archivelogs.


Please do let me know.
.

Thanks!
