Unable to sync with Oracle Standby database - oracle

I have created a standby database on Windows machine with version 10.2.0.1
For the first time for the database to sync I have copied the archive from the primary database. But on the switch from the primary database. The archive log doesn't ship to the standby database.
SQL> recover standby database;

Earlier I took the cold backup to move the files.

Oracle RAC RMAN Backup not writing to NFS Share

run {
SET nocfau;
ALLOCATE CHANNEL CH0 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/nfs/datafile/%U_%T';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL CH1 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/nfs/datafile/%U_%T';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL CH2 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/nfs/datafile/%U_%T';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL CH3 DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT '/nfs/datafile/%U_%T';

BACKUP ARCHIVELOG ALL FORMAT '/nfs/archivelogs/%U' NOT BACKED UP 1 TIMES;
RELEASE CHANNEL CH0;
RELEASE CHANNEL CH1;
RELEASE CHANNEL CH2;
RELEASE CHANNEL CH3;
}
The above is the rman script to run backup for Oracle RAC. I have NFS share that is mounted with following options: rw,user,hard,noac,vers=4
The NFS Server has the following export: NFSv4,rw,no_root_squash,no_all_squash,secure
The issue is that nothing gets written to the NFS share. I can create files, copy large files, but when RMAN is run nothing is copied to the NFS share.
The RMAN process runs till it's terminated.
When I do nfsiostat -a it shows 5 mandatory GETATTR requests.
Does it mean the Oracle datafiles are not being written in NFS share because the file attributes along with file uid/gid is not being successfully retrieved?
Update: tried running the backup on Oracle 19c RAC setup
Get the following RMAN error
RMAN-03009: failure of backup command on CH0 channel at 08/24/2020 16:59:11
ORA-19504: failed to create file "/home/oracle/nfs/ractest/1178998226/full/datafile/data_D-ORAMS19C_I-1178998226_TS-SYSAUX_FNO-3_rhv8m5mt_20200824"

ORA-17500: ODM err: No such file or directory
I ran the rman backup on a local disk they succeed and the datafiles have the group asmadmin. Do backups fail on NFS share becuase the datafile attributes/group information is not being copied to the NFS share?
The oracle user is not part of the asmadmin group.
Your NFS options are wrong for RMAN. For Oracle RAC, they should be as follows:
rw,bg,hard,nointr,rsize=32768,wsize=32768,tcp,vers=3,timeo=600
These options are required, per Oracle documentation. Also, the use of the "noac" option is specifically a problem for RMAN and should not be used.
It seems to be an issue with Oracle 12.1, Following the oracle support document and applying the patch(20720667) provided has resolved the issue. Here is the link

I lost the redologs files from my test database due to a disk error

I lost the redologs files from my test database due to a disk error, when trying to open the database it presents the error below:
ORA-01589: you must use RESETLOGS or NORESETLOGS option to open bd
When executing the command
alter database open resetlogs;
another error occurs:
ERROR on line 1:
ORA-01194: File 1 Needs More Recovery to Be Consistent
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/u02/DATA/GDQUA/datafile/system01.dbf'
Running:
recover database;
Give the error:
ORA-00283: Recovery session canceled due to errors
ORA-01610: Recovery must be performed using the BACKUP CONTROLFILE option
Can you guys help me with this?
Befor you open database with resetlogs,you need set "_ALLOW_RESETLOGS_CORRUPTION" parameter to ‘true’.
ALTER SYSTEM SET "_ALLOW_RESETLOGS_CORRUPTION"=TRUE SCOPE=SPFILE;

Has anyone tried oracle export : EXPDP on the remote machine?

I am trying to export a dump file and log file on a remote machine using oracle expdp.
However i am getting the following error :
Connected to: Oracle Database 11g
Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing
options
ORA-39002: invalid operation
ORA-39070: Unable to open the log file.
ORA-29283: invalid file operation
ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_FILE", line 536
ORA-29283: invalid file operation
Command run on remote machine host-name 'Local' using oracle client are :
SQL> create directory expdp_dir as '/vault2/expdp_dir';
SQL> grant read,write on directory expdp_dir to dbuser;
expdp dbuser/dbpwd#SID SCHEMAS=dbuser DIRECTORY=expdp_dir DUMPFILE=testDB24NOV17.dmp logfile=testDB24NOV17.log EXCLUDE=STATISTICS
Note vault 2 is mounted on a remote machine with hostname 'Local'. The database is on a machine with hostname TestDB.
The OS is RHEL6.
Any thoughts /ideas on making this operation successful would be appreciated.
Please check this one:
as per Oracle Doc.ID Doc ID 1305166.1
The errors can have multiple causes. Known causes are listed below.
One of the usual reasons for this problem to occur is when the listener process has not been started under the same account as the database instance service. The listener forks the new server process and when this runs under a different security context as the database, then access to directories and files are likely impacted.
Please verify the following information:
1) the output of:
ps -ef | grep SMON
2) the output of:
ps -ef | grep tnslsnr
3) the output of:
ps -ef|grep LIST
4) the output of:
ls -ld
Note:
When using ASM, the listener may have been started from the ASM Home instead of the RDBMS Home. Depending on your security settings, this may give to this issue.
One more:
4. Directory path/folder exists but create directory is executed by a different user in the database and the import is run by a different user.
Solution:
1. Make sure the listener and instance services are started from the same account.
Make sure that the directory are shared between nodes so that the directory can be accessed on any instance, or, create a folder similar to the other nodes locally, if there is already a folder created locally on the all the node with the same file directory path structure check if the permission are correct.
Make sure the folder exist has specified in during creation in the "CREATE DIRECTORY" syntax command.
Grant the required permission to the importing user to use the directory.
grant read, write on directory to ;
If above 4 possible causes and solutions are not applicable at your end, please check if the user has proper permission to export to run utl_file package.
Hope it helps.

RMAN Duplicate Target Database ORA-19511: Error received from media manager layer

I am trying to build a standby database in a Data Guard configuration using RMAN Duplicate Target Database For Standby Dorecover.
All the rman backupsets are there in Netbackup and I can see the inventory of backup pieces using the RMAN views.
However, the Duplicate Target Database command is failing with:
channel p4: starting datafile backup set restore
channel p4: restoring control file
channel p4: reading from backup piece c-2404308342-20160306-02
channel p4: ORA-19870: error while restoring backup piece c-2404308342-20160306-02
ORA-19507: failed to retrieve sequential file, handle="c-2404308342-20160306-02", parms=""
ORA-27029: skgfrtrv: sbtrestore returned error
ORA-19511: Error received from media manager layer, error text:
Backup file <c-2404308342-20160306-02> not found in NetBackup catalog
Basically, the backup pieces are there, but RMAN/Netbackup is saying that they are not there.
Do you know why?
Thank you.
Please try validating the restore with a validate restore command. It should take some time but will notify you of any backup corruptions.
e.g. RMAN > restore database validate;
Thanks

Checker run found 1 new persistent data failures
check init.ora file(spfile.ora) and check ALL controlfiles listed here. There should be at least three of them. Then exclude the missiin one form the list and try to start the database. You should also check sizes and dates of all control files.
Your goal is to find at least one usable copy of controlfile to start the database.
create pfile='/tmp/init.ora' from spfile;
then edit this init.ora file.
startup database pfile='/tmp/init.ora' nomount;
alter database mount;
alter database open;
You have to sync init.ora with valid controlfiles you have on the disk.
Check their permissions, sizes, modification dates.
