What would you like to do:
   1 - Create standby database (and optionally save settings in template)
   2 - Help
   3 - Terminate processing
   Please enter your choice [1]: 1

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=>Do you want to use TRANSPORTABLE MEDIA to transfer the database backup to the
standby server? Transportable media is an external device such as a USB drive
that is first plugged into the primary server and then manually transferred to
the standby site and plugged into the standby server to continue the process.
It can be used for large databases or slow networks.
Specifying No means the network will be used to transfer the database backup.
[N]:
Your input: N

Is this correct? <Yes/No> [Yes]:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=>Do you want to use SHARED SPACE to backup the database? Shared space is a
location accessible on both SOURCE and DESTINATION. Backup will not need to be
transfered from SOURCE to DESTINATION. [N]:
Your input: N

Is this correct? <Yes/No> [Yes]:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=>Do you want to perform backup, transfer and restore operations in parallel
when possible? [Y]:
Your input: Y

Is this correct? <Yes/No> [Yes]:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=>Do you want to ship archive logs from the primary database while creating the
standby database? [Y]:
Your input: Y

Is this correct? <Yes/No> [Yes]:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A temporary location must be specified on kiwi701 where the database will be
backed up to first.
This location must be big enough to hold RMAN backup of the whole database
(3.16GB).

=>Specify the location on this server: [/usr/tmp]:
Your input: /usr/tmp

Is this correct? <Yes/No> [Yes]:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A temporary location must be specified on kiwi702 where the database backup
will be copied to before moving to specified locations.

=>Specify location on remote server: [/usr/tmp]:
Your input: /usr/tmp

Is this correct? <Yes/No> [Yes]:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

=>Do you want to register a newly created standby database with Oracle Restart?
[Y]:
Your input: Y

Is this correct? <Yes/No> [Yes]:

The following oracle database parameters will be set in the standby database pfile or spfile:

>>> We will now run a pre-flight check before standby database creation. An attempt will be
    made to create a standby (s)pfile using Oracle standby database parameters, followed by
    trying to start the standby instance. If this step fails, then please double-check the
    following items before re-running dbvctl again:

    1) Review the standby database parameters you have supplied and provide valid values
    unless a template is used.
    2) Recreate the template to provide valid values for standby database parameters if a
    template is used.

As part of the Switchover process, the primary and standby controlfiles have been exchanged.Unless you are using RMAN catalog database, you may need to cross-check all backups and review RMAN settings using the SHOW ALL command on the new Primary/Standby databases. Confirm the path set for the SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO setting is valid on both sides.
