Fast-start failover enables the Data Guard broker to rapidly and automatically failover to a previously chosen standby database without requiring manual intervention. Therefore, the target standby never falls behind the primary When you start a switchover, the broker verifies that at least one standby database, including the primary database that is about to be transitioned to the standby role, is configured to support the overall protection mode (maximum protection, maximum availability, or maximum performance) after the switchover is completed. broker configuration, you must connect through another DGMGRL client Do not attempt to reinstate the old primary database if an ORA-752 or ORA-600 [3020] error has occurred at the failover target. FSFO can provide substantial gains in high availability and disaster recovery preparedness for all environments, from inexpensive Cloud-based systems to global distributed data centers. OBSERVER command, if this directory does not have the The FS_FAILOVER_OBSERVER_PRESENT column, which indicates whether the observer is running and actively pinging the database. After the fast-start failover completes successfully, the master observer will attempt to reinstate the former primary database as a new standby database when a connection to the former primary database is reestablished, and the FastStartFailoverAutoReinstate configuration property is set to TRUE. To failover, connect to the standby database and use the DGMGRL FAILOVER TO db-unique-name command. If client-side ONS configuration is used, the client-side ONS configuration file must specify the hostname and port of the ONS daemon(s) of the primary database and each standby database. required permissions, fast-start failover callouts will fail. Starting Observers as Background Processes. It uses the connect identifier specified in the observer configuration file to locate the credentials for a broker configuration from the Oracle wallet. By default, a fast-start failover is done when both the observer and the standby cannot reach the primary after the configured time threshold (FastStartFailoverThreshold) has passed. The failover was to a logical standby database. To run an observer as a background process, use the DGMGRL command START OBSERVER IN BACKGROUND. By default, the observer creates this file in the current working directory when it is started and names the file fsfo.dat. The Oracle Database 11g observer can make use of specific credentials, allowing the same wallet to be used for multiple observers with different SYS passwords. Immediate Failovers in Configurations Using Cascaded Standbys. Perform SWITCH LOGFILE if necessary. The information in this guide is based on practical experience gained from deploying FSFO in a global corporate production environment. If the database is not enabled, you will not be able to perform a failover to this database. Subdirectories within Multiplexing SRLs merely adds unnecessary IO and can increase commit latency. If the Broker configuration is changed to make a bystander the new failover target (probably a good idea if the failed database will be down for a while), the observer will not automatically reinstate the former primary because it is no longer part of the FSFO configuration. After a complete failover finishes, any bystander standby database that is not viable as a standby for the new primary database will be disabled by the broker. If the primary and target standby databases do not have network connectivity or if the database to which you are connected does not have network connectivity with the primary database, consider using DISABLE FAST_START FAILOVER with the FORCE option. Use the SQL ALTER DATABASE MOVE DATAFILE command to rename or relocate an online data file on a physical standby that is a fast-start failover target if the standby is mounted, but not open. Unlike the primary / standby interconnect, where bandwidth and latency are determining performance factors, the observer requires very little network bandwidth and is not overly latency sensitive, allowing the it to be placed practically anywhere a reliable connection is available. not already enabled, the observer waits until fast-start failover You must determine which available standby databases should be targets for failover. All Data Guard environments require the use of a password file in order to allow the databases to connect to each other. For this build, we will use a single physical standby database. A failover may or may not result in data loss depending on the protection mode in effect at the time of the failover. If it reconnects to the primary database before the standby agrees to fail over, then the master observer will stop attempting to initiate a fast-start failover. DG_ADMIN environment variable is not set, the files are stored in If the primary is unable to contact the standby after a user specified period of time (NET_TIMEOUT option of log_archive_dest_ n), it drops out of synchronous transfer mode and begins operating as though it were in Maximum Performance mode. Administration at the target standby site should be as comprehensive as that at the primary site because the standby database may assume the primary role without prior notice. The This is typically done for planned maintenance of the primary system. The v$database view has has columns specifically for monitoring FSFO status. Stopping the Observer When There is Only One Observer. See Setting the Protection Mode for Your Configuration. If possible, confirm that fast-start failover has not In Fast-start failover is inhibited in this case. These scripts must be in the same directory as the If the currently configured mode is maximum protection, Cloud Control will downgrade the mode to maximum availability. In the previous article, we have seen switching the role of Primary and standby database and failover Primary role to Standby database manually. occurred to the target standby database prior to disabling fast-start The NetTimeout property specifies the number of seconds LGWR will block waiting for acknowledgment from the standby in synchronous mode before considering the connection lost (corresponds to the NET_TIMEOUT option of log_archive_dest_n). Note the use of "/@" to login using the wallet. A switchover guarantees no data loss. It comes with a GUI and command line interface. To move the observer to another computer: There is no need to disable fast-start failover when you move the observer. The FastStartFailoverTarget configuration property on the primary unless the new property value contains the current fast-start failover target. database is managed by Oracle Clusterware, broker directs Oracle Clusterware to Step:6 You must ensure that the primary database is shut down prior to performing a manual failover. observer and the others are backup observers. See Oracle Data Guard Concepts and Administration for information about tuning the log apply rate for a physical standby database. upheld. More specifically, we can have an asynchronous second read-only Managed instance in the same or in a different region. configuration property. A fast-start failover to the target standby database fails. By default, the observer will initiate failover to the target standby if and only if ALL of the following are true: Oracle Database 11g Rel 1 introduced user configurable failover conditions that can trigger the observer to initiate failover immediately. Note: If you have just enabled archivelog mode, force an archive log creation ( alter system archive log current) to ensure that at least one archive log exists. To start an observer, you must be able to log in to DGMGRL with an account that has Observers continuously monitor the fast-start failover environment to ensure the primary database is available (described in When Fast-Start Failover Is Enabled and the Observer Is Running). *PATCH V3 0/6] ASoC: codecs: Add Awinic AW883XX audio amplifier driver [not found] <000701d8e7521f78bc05e6a340awinic.com> @ 2022-11-11 11:26 ` wangweidong.a 2022-11 . If there are multiple observers, then only one of them is the master observer. Overview of Switchover and Failover in a Broker Environment. November 20, 2009. Now that we know switchovers work, it's time to test failovers. Step-B: Copy control file to temporary location on primary database. A complete failover also attempts to avoid disabling any standby databases that were not the target of the failover, so that they may continue serving as standby databases to the new primary database. lower detection times for primary database failures. In order to fully automate switchover, Broker needs SYSDBA credentials in order to restart one or both databases. Most of the network services used in a FSFO environment may use dynamic registration, but to enable Broker to restart instances during role transitions or during reinstatement after a failover, you must define a static service named db_unique_name_dgmgrl. This is called failover. If a non-zero value is specified for the is only possible when the configured data loss guarantee can be Improper Oracle Net configuration is a leading cause of reported FSFO issues. As a result, there is no guarantee that the observer will not perform a fast-start failover to the target standby database if the observer determines that conditions warrant a failover. It has two parts in the following order: Configuration declaration this section is mandatory. broker does not allow the primary database to commit transactions until it has regained Figure 6-1 Relationship of Primary and Standby Databases and the Observer. The services include switchover, switchback and failover. Staff support, hardware and software, security (both software and site), network connections, and bandwidth should be equivalent at both sites. Make sure that your OS environment on the standby is setup. Alternatively, if you intend to switch back to the original primary relatively soon, then you may re-enable the disabled standby databases after the switch back. A simple example for *nix is provided below that will work with both releases. Using Shared Server (MTS) or connection pooling can result in unpredictable behavior. primary database. The configuration must be operating in either maximum availability mode or maximum performance mode in order to be able to switch over to a logical standby database. command is submitted successfully, the command-line prompt on the With increased latency comes decreased throughput; however, in some cases the difference in throughput may be made up by increasing parallelism. Read-Only Standby and Active Data Guard While this eliminates the processing overhead associated with periodically establishing a new observer connection to the primary database, it also prevents the observer from detecting that it is not possible to create new connections to the primary database. Oracle Database 10g allows a different password file to be used as long as the SYS passwords are the same on the primary and standby. configuration file, such as START OBSERVING, PRIM> ALTER DATABASE COMMIT TO SWITCHOVER TO PHYSICAL STANDBY WITH SESSION SHUTDOWN; This directory is created when you run the In addition, the primary database will shut down if it perceives a loss of connectivity for a period longer than FastStartFailoverThreshold seconds, if the FastStartFailoverPmyShutdown configuration property is set to TRUE. If necessary, you can shut down the primary or target standby database in a fast-start failover environment. It is then configured to be active in the PHYSICAL_STANDBY role on the physical standby database SOUTH. is guaranteed to lose no more than the amount of FB Page:https://www.facebook.com/dbahariprasath/? If both HVR and Data Guard were running without latency or if no changes were made to the source database at the time of the failover, it can be assumed that all databases are synced and the no extra steps are necessary; the steps for Graceful Failover can be followed. become the master observer. The RedoRoutes property on the primary if the new value would result in the primary not being able to ship redo to the current fast-start failover target standby. This may result in data loss. standby database is mounted, broker remembers this setting. There are prerequisites that must be met before the broker allows you to enable fast-start failover. The FastStartFailoverLagLimit configuration property is only used by the broker when enabling fast-start failover for configurations operating in maximum performance mode. If no value is specified for the In Oracle RAC configurations, the Inaccessible Logfile and Stuck Archiver health conditions may only be applicable to a single instance. When the observer loses its connection to the primary database for a period of time greater than that specified by the FastStartFailoverThreshold property, it attempts a failover to the standby database. The broker reinstates a failed primary database as a standby database of the same type (physical or logical standby database) as the old standby database. It may be possible to convert the old Primary into a Standby database now instead of having to do a time consuming duplicate again. When you configure data guard using OCI console, the default mode is set to maxprotection. These requirements are supplemental to those described in the documents previously referenced and in the following client-specific guides: Oracle Data Provider for .NET Developer's Guide for Microsoft Windows. lose no more than the amount of data (in seconds) specified by the files to automate tasks that must be performed before and after a fast-start failover The same process should work for RAC environment as my colleague has . There can be up to four observers for a single Data Guard configuration. This section describes how to configure an Oracle Net connect descriptor that meets this requirement. primary. The platform provides comprehensive services such as maintaining and monitoring databases to help the oracle databases in surviving during data corruption. Now let's test switchover in the other direction. change tracking enabled, broker enables block change tracking on the new Install the DGMGRL command-line interface on the observer computer as described in Oracle Data Guard Installation. Run the RMAN utility and connect to the target (primary) and auxiliary (new standby). Issue the following command while connected to any database in the broker configuration, except the database that is to be reinstated: The newly reinstated standby database will begin serving as a standby database to the new primary database. If there is only one observer, then it is considered to be the master observer. You can manage observers through either the Oracle Data Guard Overview pages in Cloud Control or using DGMGRL commands. Transitions the target standby database into the primary role, opens the new primary database in read/write mode, and starts redo transport services. directory by this environment variable does not exist, or the $DG_ADMIN The observer is the key element that separates Data Guard failover from its pre-FSFO role as the plan of last resort to its leading role in a robust high availability solution. ASYNC. A fast-start failover occurred because a user-configurable condition was detected or was requested by an application by calling the DBMS_DG.INITIATE_FS_FAILOVER function. You must then re-create it from a copy of the new primary database and reenable it as described in How to Re-create and Reenable a Disabled Database. The new ConfigurationWideServiceName configuration property can be used to simplify setting up this connect identifier. Broker Configuration Has Multiple Registered Observers. You can disable fast-start failover if necessary, by using the FORCE option. If the former primary database cannot be reinstated automatically, you can manually reinstate it using either the DGMGRL REINSTATE command or Cloud Control. ConfigurationSimpleName. These tasks assume that you are connected as SYS or SYSDG and that a primary and standby database are already set up in a broker configuration. Verify the target standby database is ready for failover. You must provide a connect identifier, through which one or more databases in a specific broker configuration can be reached. When performing a switchover in a configuration whose standby databases are You can register up to four observers to monitor a single Data Guard broker configuration. Steps that require the primary to be in a mounted (not open) state are grouped together in the section below entitled Steps Requiring a Bounce of the Primary. Verify the configuration from both hosts. process. exit. Oracle Data Guard can switch a standby database to the primary role in case a production database becomes unavailable due to . Then, Tailing the alert logs on the primary and standby is a good way to watch Broker in action and get familiar with how it performs various tasks. 2. The following sections describe how to reinstate or reenable a database. PDBs. If you are not using Oracle Clusterware or Oracle Restart, then you must create static service names so that the observer can automatically restart a database as part of reinstatement. After a failover, the original primary database can no longer participate in the Data Guard configuration. Any standby database that was disabled by the broker must be reinstated or re-created, as described in Reenabling Disabled Databases After a Role Change, before it can be a standby database for the new primary database. These are the actions the broker performs after you start a switchover. Look for the desired data in the RAM. database is in the primary role. Starting the Observer as a Background Process Using an alias of the broker configuration name. RMAN also copies the spfile and password files and you can change the values for individual parameters. Any broker configuration name that is referred to must exist in the configuration declaration section. Automatic failover quickly and reliably fails over the standby Autonomous database to the primary database role, without requiring you to perform any manual steps. This not only saves time and minimizes problems by automating an otherwise manual process, it exercises your failover and DR procedures with every flip so that you know the FSFO configuration is sound and, in a real emergency, everyone knows what to do. It shuts down or stalls because it is likely a failover has occurred. the observer on ob2-host to become the master The procedure for using RMAN to create a standby database is fully explained in Appendix F of Oracle Oracle Data Guard Concepts and Administration document (10g Rel 2 and 11g Rel 1). This If it exists, and it contains a pre-callout script location, This document describes how to setup clients to connect to Data Guard databases (primary and standby) and configure automatic client failover such that in case there is role change due to switchover or . If you intend to switch back to the original primary database relatively soon, you may allow the physical and snapshot standbys to remain disabled. The broker selects a target based on the order in which they are specified on the FaststartFailoverTarget property. Many customers use Oracle Database deployed on Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) to run their Oracle E-Business Suite applications. alter database recover managed standby database cancel; Step:3 The below commands will help to bring up standby as primary. If the new primary database was a primary database in the past, and had block directory. observers are registered, a directory named There is no data loss during a switch-over. If failover is not possible for some reason, then the master observer will continue checking whether the standby database is ready to fail over. When you select a standby database to be the next primary database after a switchover or a failover, there are several factors to consider. If the observer is unable to regain a connection to the primary database within the specified time, and the target standby database is ready for fast-start failover, then fast-start failover ensues. FSFO can also be used with logical standbys and an FSFO-enabled configuration may have multiple standbys with a mix of physical and logical, but only one standby can be the failover target at any given time. In the media recovery phase, Flashback Database applies redo to bring the database up to the standby_became_primary_scn. Start the observer by running dgmgrl and logging in using SYS credentials. In addition, the database to be reinstated and the new Simply use DISABLE FAST_START FAILOVER. As a result the observer may still initiate fast-start failover to the target standby database, if conditions warrant a failover. SQL> select name,open_mode,database_role from v$database; NAME OPEN_MODE DATABASE_ROLE --------- -------------------- ---------------- MYTEST MOUNTED PHYSICAL STANDBY Step 2: Apply the following command to finish database recovery. If no name is specified for the observer then a default observer name, the host name of machine where the START OBSERVER command is issued, is used. An observer process is integrated in the DGMGRL client-side component of the broker and typically runs on a different computer from the primary or standby databases and from the computer where you manage the broker configuration. FAN events are published using Oracle Notification Services (ONS) for all Oracle integrated database clients in Oracle Database 12c and later. The broker reinstates the database as a standby database of the same type as the former standby database of the new primary database. configuration file See Reenabling Disabled Databases After a Role Change for more information. Application Continuity is an Oracle Database feature that enables rapid and nondisruptive replays of requests against the database after a recoverable error that made the database session unavailable. Verify dmon process is running and broker parameters viz. In a Data Guard environment primary database is open in read write mode and the standby database in read only mode for reporting purpose. The act of switching roles should be a well-planned activity. In this case, Flashback Database cannot be used to reinstate databases. On primary database NORTH, execute the following: On standby database SOUTH, execute the following: Services that are to be active while the database is in the physical standby role must also be created and started on the current primary database regardless of whether the service will be started on that database or not. In maximum protection mode, set the LogXptMode database property to SYNC (note that in maximum protection mode, a far sync instance cannot be used to ship redo to a standby). FastStartFailoverLagLimit configuration property. All Data Guard environments should enable force logging at the database level in order to guard against nologging tablespaces from being added. If only a path is specified, the files are On the Oracle Data Guard Overview page next to the Fast-Start Failover status field, click Disabled to invoke the Fast-Start Failover page. You can find detailed information about all observers, including master observers and backup observers, in the V$FS_FAILOVER_OBSERVERS view. If automatic reinstatement fails, the broker will log errors and the former primary database will remain in the mounted state. Although the default value of 30 seconds is typically adequate for detecting outages and failures on most configurations, you can adjust failover sensitivity with this property to decrease the probability of false failovers in a temporarily unstable environment. With FSFO enabled, Broker expects to find an observer, which we haven't started yet, so if you verify the at this point with 'show configuration', Broker will report a warning (if it doesn't, give it a minute to discover that the observer isn't there). As shown in the table, fast-start failover can be enabled in maximum availability Check the Undo tablespace Usage in Oracle, Exclude/Include option in EXPDP and IMPDP Datapump, Missing Dependencies Python Core / win32api, Stop the EXPDP/IMPDP Datapump Job in Oracle, Find the temp usage by sessions in Oracle, Create & grant permission to directory in Oracle, Check the Patch Applied to the Oracle Database. Among many benefits of using this utility, I highlight that while using it, it will not need manual intervention to recover the databases or eventually a switchover in case the primary database becomes unavailable. Because the broker performs the failover after converting the snapshot standby database to a physical standby database, it is likely that all standby databases in the configuration will still be available as standby databases to the new primary database after the failover operation completes. SHOW OBSERVER command to confirm that the switch took place. Use the SHOW CONFIGURATION BystandersFollowRoleChange command to see the value of this property. See "Database Service Configuration Requirements" for additional information about how the broker interacts with Oracle Restart. Use the FastStartFailoverTarget configuration property on the current primary database to specify one or more fast-start failover targets. Restart the database to the mounted state, Use Cloud Control or DGMGRL to reinstate the database. The broker continuously monitors for all sessions that are connected Add the SRLs. You can also query the V$FS_FAILOVER_STATS view to display statistics about fast-start failover occurring on the system. STANDBY>connect /@STAN as sysdba (For example, if the DBMS_LOGSTDBY.SKIP procedure was used to specify which database operations done on the primary database will not be applied to the logical standby database.).
