Hi All,
In my test environment I am building a 2 node 12c RAC standby database. For the same I have copied the password file from PROD to STANDBY CLUSTER under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory on both the nodes.
PROD DATABASE: INPRAC03
STANDBY : INCRAC03
On node 2 on standby cluster ,I try copy the password file from /dbs directory to ASM ,
ASMCMD> pwd
+DATA/INCRAC03
ASMCMD> ls -lt
Type Redund Striped Time Sys Name
N TEMPFILE/
N PASSWORD/
N PARAMETERFILE/
N ONLINELOG/
N DATAFILE/
ASMCMD> pwcopy --dbuniquename INCRAC03 /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_1/dbs/orapwINCRAC03_2 +DATA/INCRAC03/orapwincrac03
copying /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_1/dbs/orapwINCRAC03_2 -> +DATA/INCRAC03/orapwincrac03
ASMCMD> ls -lt
Type Redund Striped Time Sys Name
N TEMPFILE/
N PASSWORD/
N PARAMETERFILE/
N ONLINELOG/
N DATAFILE/
PASSWORD HIGH COARSE SEP 07 08:00:00 N orapwincrac03 => +DATA/ASM/PASSWORD/pwdasm.270.857637901
Now the issue is that why the password file is pointing to '+DATA/ASM/PASSWORD' instead of '+DATA/INCRAC03/PASSWORD'.
There is nothing under '+DATA/INCRAC03/PASSWORD'
ASMCMD> pwd
+DATA/INCRAC03
ASMCMD> cd PASSWORD
ASMCMD> ls -lt
ASMCMD>
Though logs are transfer to standby is ok.
Plz suggest to clarify.
