We can run following queries to check all are fine with Standby db.

       @Primary

set lines 500
column destination format a35 wrap
column process format a7
column archiver format a8
column ID format 99

select dest_id “ID”,destination,status,target,archiver,schedule,process,mountid from v$archive_dest;

Output (Status should return valid for standby destination)

Note: If we gets results as shown above, we can close the standby alerts as TFALSE.

Pls correct/ add comments if required.

To determine if there is an archive gap on your physical standby database, query
the as shown in the following example:

break on report
compute sum of GAP on report
select to_char(sysdate,’DD.MM.RR HH24:MI:SS’) time, a.thread#, (select
max(sequence#) from v$archived_log where archived’YES’ and thread#a.thread#)
archived, max(a.sequence#) applied, (select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log
where archived’YES’ and thread#a.thread#)-max(a.sequence#) gap from
v$archived_log a where a.applied’YES’ group by a.thread#;

To verify the log application status.

On primary DB

SELECT THREAD#, MAX(SEQUENCE#) AS “LAST_GENERATED_LOG” FROM V$LOG_HISTORY GROUP BY THREAD#;

Standby DB

SELECT THREAD#, MAX(SEQUENCE#) AS “LAST_APPLIED_LOG” FROM V$LOG_HISTORY GROUP BY THREAD#;

To see the max seq applied.

select THREAD#,max(SEQUENCE#) from v$archived_log where APPLIED’YES’ group by THREAD#;

To stop the MRP.

alter database recover managed standby database cancel;

To start the MRP.

recover managed standby database disconnect from session;

To recover standby manually.

SQL> recover automatic standby database;

SQL> recover managed standby database parallel

a. no. of cpu…
b. no. of thread possible on each cpu…

total threads a*b -1

To enable the in one commmand.

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET log_archive_dest_state_2enable scopeboth SID’*’ ;

To start the standby and put in MRP

SQL> startup nomount;

SQL> alter database mount standby database;

recover managed standby database disconnect from session ;

To find the missing logs @ standby
