Resending (synching) archive logs

It might happen that you would like to resend all the archivelogs still required by the standby for recovery.

It might also be possible that you have recovered the standby database outside Dbvisit Standby.  If this was done it is also recommended to resync the archive logs which will update the internal Dbvisit Repository as well.

 

This can be done by running the command:

dbvisit –R <DDC>

All logs that still need to be applied to the standby database will be resent from the primary to the standby. In addition to this, the DDC file will also be resent from the primary to the standby server.

Example:

oracle@dbvlin501[/usr/dbvisit/standby]: ./dbvisit -R proddb
