RMAN Restore vs Duplicate - to create standby database

edited May 30, 2017 5:16AM in Database Backup and Recovery (MOSC) 11 commentsAnswered ✓

Hi All,

I have initiated RMAN restore to a new server which we intend to convert as  a physical standby.

DB - Source & target are same version - 11.2.0.3

Source DB size is - close to 2 TB

1) what difference will it make , when we use Rman restore database from backup to clone  database onto a new server to that of using RMAN Duplicate database [ as we want to make this as standby database ]?

Can we make it as standby by once the database is restored using - RESTORE database , RECOVER database and then alter database open reset logs ?

2) What is the best/fast way to sync up all archive log difference [ the standby with primary ] - is it backup or archives from primary and restore .. any quick steps in that case.

Howdy, Stranger!
