Hi.

Sorry, what is it you are trying to do? Create a duplicate of your standby, or create a duplicate of your primary for use as a standby?

Hi.

You should be doing something like this.

http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g ... -11gr2.php

Regarding the standby setup, you should be following the DUPLICATE method, not the manual method.

http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g ... _setup_dup

At no point (until the duplicate is complete) is the standby started, so I don't know what you mean by "My standby database is in started mode.".

Cheers

Hi.

Rather than post your procedure and make me compare it to my article, why don't you compare your procedure to my suggested procedure in the article and highlight what differences you've made compared to the steps I suggest?

Cheers
