Oracle 11gR2 Active slave uard configuration Step By Step

Source: Internet
Author: User

Oracle, as the most popular commercial database, provides a series of HA solutions in addition to independent database DBMS, to meet actual O & M system requirements. Among them, RAC + Dataguard is our most common HA policy solution and is also widely recognized as a mature strategy.
 
Data Guard has been greatly developed in 11G. Two typical features are the introduction of Active Data Guard and Advanced Compression. During Redo Apply, the Physical Standby node of the traditional Data Guard cannot open the database to read Data. If you want to read data, you must terminate the Apply process before you can support Redo Apply. Active Data Guard supports Standby nodes and read-only databases while applying. This is why many enterprises have chosen DG as the technical means of read/write splitting policy after the 11G.
 
Advanced Compression is a comprehensive technology that also involves the AC process in Data Guard. A major bottleneck for Remote Disaster Recovery Using Data Guard is the transmission bandwidth limit. All Redo Log data must be transmitted through the connection between Primary and Standby. Excessive Redo logs limit the degree of disaster recovery data synchronization. Advanced Compression can compress the Redo Log to a certain extent to improve the synchronization rate.
 
This article describes how to use the new method of RMAN duplicate from active database in 11gR2. Note: from 10 Gb, there are other methods to build DG.

1. Environment Introduction

 

We chose Red Hat 6.5 as the operating system, with sufficient disk space.

 

[Root @ SimpleLinux ~] # Cat/etc/RedHat-release

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.5 (Santiago)

[Root @ SimpleLinux ~] # Uname-r

2.6.32-431. el6.i686

 

[Root @ SimpleLinux ~] # Df-h

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use % Mounted on

/Dev/sda2 48G 13G 33G 28%/

Tmpfs 947 M 0 947 M 0%/dev/shm

 

The current database name is ora11g. The environment variables are as follows:

 

[Oracle @ SimpleLinux ~] $ Env | grep ORA

ORACLE_SID = ora11g

ORACLE_BASE =/u01/app

ORACLE_HOME =/u01/app/oracle

 

Because it is an experimental environment, the author builds Data Guard on the same machine. The operations on different servers are the same. The database version is 11.2.0.4.

 

SQL> select * from v $ version;

Three major database files: control files, log files (Online), and data files comply with the OMF (Oracle Managed File) policy.

 

SQL> select name from v $ controlfile;

The current database is in non-archive mode.

 

SQL> archive log list;

Database log mode No Archive Mode

Automatic archival Disabled

Archive destination USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST

Oldest online log sequence 4

Current log sequence 6

 

Note: OMF is a file management policy recommended by Oracle. Traditional file management allows administrators to directly specify the file directory and name, while OMF does not need to specify the file. In addition, if the Recovery Area directory is configured, Oracle OMF will store the two large image files, online redo log and control file images in the Recovery Area.
 
Currently, Recovery Area support is configured.

 

SQL> show parameter recover

Db_recovery_file_dest string/u01/app/fast_recovery_area

Db_recovery_file_dest_size large integer 10000 M

Db_unrecoverable_scn_tracking boolean TRUE

Recovery_parallelism integer 0

 

The objective of this experiment is to create an ora11g physical standby database with the instance name ora11gsy.

 

2. Database Primary Database configuration

 

Data Guard requires configuration on the Primary Database. The details are as follows:

 

Ü switch the archive mode. Data Guard runs on the basis of Redo Log transmission. The Primary Database requires the archive mode configuration;

Ü Force Logging configuration to ensure the integrity of Redo Log generation;

Ü Standby Log creation;

Ü master database parameter configuration;

 

Modify the archive mode and switch to the archive log mode. By default, if the recovery area is enabled, archived logs are stored in the recovery area.

 

SQL> alter database archivelog;

Database altered.

 

SQL> archive log list;

Database log mode Archive Mode

Automatic archival Enabled

Archive destination USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST

Oldest online log sequence 4

Next log sequence to archive 6

Current log sequence 6

 

Force logging is applicable to some Oracle nologging operations. The Redo Log is responsible for recording changes to all data blocks. Restoring and redoing the redo log means data synchronization. If there is a nologging operation, the generation of redo logs is incomplete, and the restored data transmitted to physical standby is incomplete, which is difficult to synchronize. Therefore, the logging uard must be configured with force logging.
 
 

SQL> alter database force logging;

Database altered

 

SQL> select force_logging from v $ database;

FORCE_LOGGING

-------------

YES

 

The following code creates a standby log file in the master database. Some documents do not follow this step, but only follow the standby log creation on physical standby. Standby log file is a transit of the Redo Transfer process. Generally, when the log is transferred to the Standby end, Apply immediately. If the application process is not enabled at this time, logs will be saved in this place. For each standby, one or more sets of standby log groups must be created. For Primary Database, you also need to configure it because there may be a role transition.
 
Note: OMF is used in Primary Database, so we can easily create standby log group.

 

SQL> alter database add standby logfile size 100 m;

Database altered

 

SQL> alter database add standby logfile size 100 m;

Database altered

 

SQL> alter database add standby logfile size 100 m;

The image configuration structure is also formed.

 

SQL> select group #, member from v $ logfile where type = 'standby ';

 

GROUP # MEMBER

Finally, modify the parameters of the master database. Specifically, modify the six parameters.

 

The log_archive_config parameter is used to specify the DG range in the environment.

 

SQL> show parameter log_archive_config

 

NAME TYPE VALUE

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Log_archive_config string

 

SQL> alter system set log_archive_config = 'dg _ CONFIG = (ora11g, ora11gsy) 'scope = spfile;
 
 

System altered

 

To add an archive log transfer location, the archive_dest parameter can be set to location or service. The Location parameter indicates that the local directory stores archived logs, and the service indicates that the logs are transmitted through the Oracle NET service. To implement the logging uard component, you must specify the log to the service.
 
 

SQL> alter system set log_archive_dest_2 = 'service = ora11gsy valid_for = (online_logfiles, primary_role) db_unique_name = ora11gsy 'scope = spfile;
 
System altered

 

SQL> alter system set log_archive_dest_state_2 = enable;

System altered

 

Note: The valid_for parameter indicates when the transmission channel is used. Online_logfiles and Primary_role indicate that logs are transmitted only when the current instance is in the Primary role. Such configuration is the most common method.
 
Name convert parameter configuration. For log files and database files, directories are an important identifier. In the conversion process of Primary and Standby, it is necessary to establish the conversion replacement rules.
 
 

SQL> alter system set db_file_name_convert = 'ora11g', 'ora11gsy 'scope = spfile;

System altered

 

SQL> alter system set log_file_name_convert = 'ora11g', 'ora11gsy 'scope = spfile;

System altered

 

Note: In some documents, if the OMF policy is adopted in 11g, this parameter can be left unspecified.

The final parameter is the standby_file_management policy. The default parameter is manual. This parameter controls how files are created between Primary and Standby. In the standard DG Environment, adding data files under Primary DB will automatically add files in Standby.
 
 

 

SQL> show parameter standby_file_management

 

NAME TYPE VALUE

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Standby_file_management string MANUAL

 

SQL> alter system set standby_file_management = auto;

 

System altered

 

SQL> show parameter standby_file_management

 

NAME TYPE VALUE

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Standby_file_management string AUTO
