Primary & Standby Database SYNC Check in Oracle Database

In Oracle Data Guard , you can check whether the standby database is in sync with the primary database by monitoring the apply lag. The apply lag represents the time delay between when a redo log is generated on the primary database and when it is applied on the standby database. A zero or low apply lag indicates that the standby is relatively up-to-date with the primary, while a high apply lag suggests a potential synchronization delay. Here are some methods to check whether the standby database is in sync with the primary: 1. Data Guard Broker If you are using the Data Guard Broker, you can use the DGMGRL command-line interface or Enterprise Manager (Grid Control) to check the status of the Data Guard configuration and monitor the apply lag. For example, using DGMGRL: DGMGRL> SHOW DATABASE 'standby_database_name' APPLY_LAG; DGMGRL > SHOW DATABASE 'standby_database_name' APPLY_LAG ; 2. V$DATAGUARD_STATS View On the primary datab...

ORA-12012: error on auto execute of job SYS.ORA$AT_OS_OPT_SY_**

Introduction ORA-12012 error is related to Oracle Database and is part of the Oracle Job Scheduler (DBMS_SCHEDULER) . It usually occurs when an automatic task or job execution encounters an issue. The error message you're seeing, " ORA$AT_OS_OPT_SY_<number> ," is specific to the job causing the problem. During the 12c database creation process, you can see ORA-12012 error in the alert log file when the “ SYS.ORA$AT_OS_OPT_SY_ ” auto job runs. To fix the error, it is necessary to drop the job and recreate it. Errors will be as follows. Errors in file /u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/prod/PROD/trace/PROD_j000_14524.trc: ORA-12012: error on auto execute of job "SYS"."ORA$AT_OS_OPT_SY_767" ORA-20001: Statistics Advisor: Invalid task name for the current user ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 47207 ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS_ADVISOR", line 882 ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_STATS_INTERNAL", line 20059 ORA-065...

RMAN Backup using ShellScript

In a real time, we will not take Oracle database backup manually everyday. Some of the tasks can be automated like RMAN backups. In this post, we will see how to automate RMAN backup using shellscript and I personally use shellscript for import/export, rman backup and for monitoring alerts. • Create Backup directory • Create RMAN backup script file .sh • Schedule Backup Under Crontab # Example of job definition: # .---------------- minute (0 - 59) # | .------------- hour (0 - 23) # | | .---------- day of month (1 - 31) # | | | .------- month (1 - 12) OR jan,feb,mar,apr ... # | | | | .---- day of week (0 - 6) (Sunday=0 or 7) OR sun,mon,tue,wed,thu,fri,sat # | | | | | # * * * * * user-name command to be executed # Example of job definition: # . ---------------- minute ( 0 - 59 ) # | . ------------- hour ( 0 - 23 ) # | | . ---------- day of month ( 1 - 31 ) # | | | . ------- month ( 1 - 12 ) OR jan , feb , mar , apr .....
