Hello All,
I am using Oracle 11gR2.
I am trying to do a switch over between primary database (RAC 2 nodes) and physical standby (single instance)
If my Primary is single instance i was following the below steps:
On the standby
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE DISCONNECT;
On the primary database:
alter database commit to switchover to standby with session shutdown;
shutdown immediate;
startup nomount;
alter database mount standby database;
On the standby again:
alter database commit to switchover to primary WITH SESSION SHUTDOWN;
On the new standby:
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;
now, and since my primary is RAC when i am trying switch over I am getting the below error:
SQL> alter database commit to switchover to standby with session shutdown;
alter database commit to switchover to standby with session shutdown
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01105: mount is incompatible with mounts by other instances
Plus that when I want to apply the remaining steps (below step), should I do it on each instance alone? or is there anyway to do it using the srvctl command:
alter database mount standby database;
Regards,
