DG Primary failed. Failed over to standby ... now what ??

 Oracle 11gR2 Windows 2008 Server primary SID : ORCL
standby SDI : ORCLSBY

Situation : Powered off Oracle Primary, failed over to standby, brought primary back online. 
I need to either recover primary back to working primary state or convert failed primary to new standby 
I am stuck and having trouble understanding what to do from here. 

Here is where I am : 

On Standby : 

DGMGRL> disable fast-start failover force
Performing failover NOW, please wait...
Failover succeeded, new primary is "orclsby"
DGMGRL> show configuration

Now orclsby is primary. 

On PRIMARY : 

Start ORCL instance on original primary. 

DGMGRL> show configuration
ORA-16795: the standby database needs to be re-created

Howdy, Stranger!
