Oracle Dataguard setup step in linux server
RaluceMay 22 2013 — edited May 22 2013Hi all,
I want to set-up an hight availability for our critical oracle database server, we have one oracle database server in Linux red hat 5 which is already runing since long time.
As this database is critical and 7/7 and 24/24 availability required, we are going to setup a new server for dataguard to avoid data loss and service downtime in case of failure of the production environment.
I have proposed to our boss a solution of Oracle dataguard, i mean to setup a standby database as i know with Oracle we can setup a another Server which will be an image of the primary server and will be use as a standby database and can be operational when the primary is down.
To setup this dataguard, does any body can help me for the process step by step in setting up a dataguard, and which kind of dataguard will you advise me as i know there are many types of dataguard. If possible i want to setup dataguard withous downtime of the primary databse if possible but i want to know what is the best way for setting up dataguard and i need a doc step by step if there is any.
My configuration is:
No RAC configuration and no ASM
OS: Linux Red hat 5
Oracle database: 11g r2
Actual databse size: 50Gb
Thank you for your help.
