When an error occurs during Graceful Switchover on either the primary or the standby server, processing will stop on both the primary and standby servers. Dbvisit Standby will display the rollback or roll forward action required depending at which checkpoint the processing stopped, but they are also listed below for reference. Only the action associated with the checkpoint needs to be performed, not the actions for the subsequent checkpoints.For example:If Graceful Switchover failed at checkpoint 8 on the primary and standby server, then only the checkpoint action for checkpoint 8 needs to be performed on both the primary and the standby server.
1. The above steps are indicative only and may vary from version to version.
2. For Oracle 8. "SQL>" should be "SVRMGR>"
3. If using Dbvisit Standby to keep the new standby database in synch, please run Dbvisit Standby once manually with the -R option to synchronise on the new primary database.
Example: dbvisit -R <DDC>
