IMPLEMENTING FAST-START FAILOVER
10GR2 DATAGUARD BROKER ENVIRONMENT
Product: Oracle 10GR2 DataGuard.
Minimum Version: 10.2.0.1.0
Abstract
----------
This paper covers the step-by-step for implementing 10GR2 DataGuard new feature -FAST-START FAILOVER.
FAST-START Failover is a new feature in DataGuard Broker 10GR2.
Fast-start failover allows the broker to automatically fail over to a synchronized
standby database in the event of loss of the primary database.
Fast-start failover quickly and reliably fails over the target standby database
to the primary database role, without requiring you to perform any
manual steps to invoke the failover.
Fast-start failover can be used only in a broker configuration and can be
configured only through DGMGRL or Enterprise Manager.
Here are detailed Steps to configure fast-Start Failover using DGMGRL.
== Tested on the following configuration ==
Operating System - Windows XP
Oracle Release - 10.2.0.1.0
Primary Database - RAJ (SINGLE INSTANCE)
Standby database - STDBY (SINGLE INSTANCE)
Broker Tool - DGMGRL
Observer Node - rghatge-in
=== The following Pre-requisites must be met before Enabling Fast-Start Failover ===
a) The broker configuration must be running in maximum availability mode.
Standby Redo logs are must for MaxAvailability Mode.
Create the standby redo logs on the Standby databaase.
Either of following ways can be used to set the Protection mode to - MAXAVAILABILITY.
DGMGRL> Edit configuration set Protection mode as MaxAvailability;
SQL> Alter database set standby database to maximize Availability;
b) Enable Flashback Database and set up a flash recovery area on both the
primary database and the target standby database.
Parameters of concerns for Flashback Database ===>
Alter system set db_recovery_file_dest_size=<integer>[<k><M><G>];
Alter system set db_recovery_file_dest=<path_to_flashabck_logs>;
To turn flashback feature, ensure database is mounted and issue the following command ==>
SQL> Alter database flashback on;
c) Install the DGMGRL command-line interface on the observer computer.
This requires you to install 10GR2 client side component or
10GR2 Enterprise/Personal Edition on observer Machine.
d) Configure the TNSNAMES.ORA file on the observer Machine so that the observer is able to connect to the
Primary database and the pre-selected target standby database.
== AFTER ABOVE PRE-REQUISITES ARE MET ===
PRIMARY Database (RAJ) ==
SQL> select protection_mode,protection_level from v$database;
PROTECTION_MODE PROTECTION_LEVEL
-------------------- --------------------
MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY
SQL> select flashback_on from v$database;

STANDBY Database (STDBY) ==

>>>> The above warning is because the Observer process is not started <<<<
=== STARTING OBSERVER ====
The observer is integrated in the DGMGRL client-side component and should run on a
different computer from the primary or standby databases.
It monitors the DG Broker environment and initiates the failover on
detecting problem with Primary.
To start the observer, only the primary database must be running; it is not necessary
for the target standby database to be running.
DGMGRL> connect sys/sys123@RAJ
Connected.
DGMGRL> start observer
Observer started <<<< Observer started.
The Observer is continous foreground process so you need to stop it from another session.
The observer persistently maintains information about the fast-start failover
configuration in a binary file created in the working directory where you started the observer.
By default, the observer creates this file when it is started and names the file fsfo.dat.
This file contains connect descriptors to both the primary and the target standby databases.
Fsfo.dat = Observer Configuration file created in home directory from where the DGMGRL is invoked.
"Observer" status can also be checked from sqlplus using new columns
introduced in 10GR2 for v$database.

Observer triggers Fast-Start Failover when one of the following conditions
is observed on primary database ==>
1) Instance Failure
2) Shutdown Abort
3) Offline Datafiles due to I/O error
4) Network disconnection
For simplicity of testing, "Shutdown Abort" was executed on Primary database
(RAJ) to initiate Fast-Start Failover.
