关于Oracle Data Guard Failover 的实例说明
failover是失败切换。这种情况下切换对redo的处理，就显的很重要。如果处理好，就不会有数据丢失。否则就会有数据丢失。
在oracle 11g里，data guard切换多了一个新的功能：flush redo。
flush能把没有发送的redo从主库传送到standby库。只要主库能启动到mount状态，那么flush就可以把没有发送的归档和current online redo发送到备库。
flush语法：
sql> alter system flush redo to target_db_name;
这里的target_db_name是我们在主库的db_unique_name名称。也就是在tnsnames.ora文件配置的。flush会将未发送的redo从主库传到备库，并且等待redo在standby库上apply之后返回成功。所以只要flush成功，那么failover就没有主句丢失。
如果说我们的primary已经不能启动到mount状态，那么就只能按照之前的方法来。oracle 10g下就是这么操作的。
一.正常的failover
1.1检查gap
sql> select thread#, low_sequence#, high_sequence# from v$archive_gap;
如果有，将对应的归档文件copy到备库，在注册它
sql>alter database register physical logfile 'filespec1';
注意：如果有gap存在，并且没有解决。那么是不能正常的进行一个failover。只能进行一个强制的failover。这种情况下会有数据丢失。
sql> alter database activate physical standby database;
1.2解决gap问题后，进行切换
1.2.1取消apply
sql> recover managed standby database cancel;
1.2.2结束apply
（1）在oracle 10gr2或之后的版本：如果在备用库上有备用库日志文件
sql> alter database recover managed standby database finish; -- [force|wait|nowait]
在执行这个命令的时候，如果主库和备库之间的网络中断了。那么备库的rfs进程就会等待网络的连接，直到tcp超时。因此在这种情况下，我们就需要加上foce关键字。
（2）在oracle 10gr2之前的版本：没有备库日志文件
sql> alter database recover managed standby database finish skip standby logfile;
注意：如果执行了这条命令，就不能在进行recover standby database;
1.2.3将备库切换成主库
sql> alter database commit to switchover to primary;
sql> shutdown immediate;
sql> startup
二.强行切换（激活）
2.1使用条件
当我们正常切换的时候，提示我们需要介质恢复的时候，就需要使用强行激活standby库。如：
sql> alter database commit to switchover to primary;
alter database commit to switchover to primary
*
error at line 1:
ora-16139: media recovery required
2.2强行激活下的redo问题
在这里需要说明一点，就是我们在主库commit之后，然后shutdown abort，这时候，主库的online redo会自动的写入备库的最后一个归档文件里（大小会发生变化）。我们在恢复的时候需要对备库的最后一个归档文件进行重新的注册。
sql>alter database register physical logfile 'filespec1';
如果说，主库os是整个宕机了。这个时候，online redo是不会发送到备库。所以我们需要手工的将主库的所有online redo copy到备库。然后进行recover。
步骤如下：
sql>alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
database altered.
sql>recover standby database until cancel;
ora-00279: change 509016 generated at 11/05/2010 11:40:27 needed for thread 1
ora-00289: suggestion : /u01/archive/1_17_734225750.dbf
ora-00280: change 509016 for thread 1 is in sequence #17
--默认情况下会提示需要归档17，实际上这个序列为17的归档还没有生成，我们忽略它，使用我们刚才copy过来的redo日志来恢复。
specify log: {
/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/redo01.log--注意，这个位置是我手动写的
log applied.
media recovery complete.
这里一次就搞定了。实际上有三个redo，如果不确定使用哪个redo的，只能一个一个试。
当我们使用了recover standby database until cancel之后，只能使用强制激活备库，如果使用正常模式，会提示我们需要：
ora-16139: media recovery required
2.3强制激活备库：
sql> alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
sql> recover standby database until cancel;
sql>alter database activate standby database;
sql>shutdown immediate;
sql>startup
三.switchover
3.1主库操作：
（1）查看状态：
sql>select switchover_status from v$database;
（2）切换
sql> alter database commit to switchover to physical standby with session shutdown;
sql> shutdown immediate;
sql> startup;
sql> alter database mount standby database;
sql> recover managed standby database disconnect;
3.2备库操作：
sql> alter database commit to switchover to primary with session shutdown;
sql> shutdown immediate
sql> startup

4.2对failover的补充说明
在4.1中看了failover的整个过程，db会进行一次resetlogs。这个是个很有意思的过程。
（1）resetlogs会产生一个新的incarnation。这个会影响我们的rman恢复。我们查看一下：
rman> list incarnation;
list of database incarnations
db keyinc key db namedb idstatusreset scnreset time
------- ------- -------- ---------------- --- ---------- ----------
11dave808637274parent130-jun-05
22dave808637274parent44607514-mar-11
33dave808637274current 125506117-mar-11
这个时候，我们只能恢复incarnation为3之内的信息，如果要恢复到其他版本的信息，要保证对应备份集存在的同时，在使用reset database incarnation to 3或者其他的版本。之后在恢复。
（2）看下归档日志
先看备库：
sql> select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log;
max(sequence#)
--------------
6
sql> select sequence#,applied from v$archived_log;
sequence# app
---------- ---
3 yes
2 yes
5 yes
4 yes
6 yes
这个是重新开始的，没有什么问题。
我们看下主库：
sql> select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log;
max(sequence#)
--------------
88
sql> select sequence#,applied from v$archived_log;
sequence# app
---------- ---
4 yes
3 yes
5 yes
6 yes
7 yes
8 yes
......
82 yes
83 yes
84 yes
85 yes
86 yes
87 yes
88 yes
2 no
2 yes--注意这部分，有重新开始了。
3 no
3 yes
4 no
5 no
5 yes
4 yes
6 no
6 yes
因为resetlogs会重置sequence#。将其设置为1.所以这里又重新开始了。但是scn不会重置。我们查看一下：
sql> select sequence#,first_change#,next_change# from v$log_history;
sequence# first_change# next_change#
---------- ------------- ------------
1446075451208
2451208483347

512656021265607
612656071265913
94 rows selected.
sql>
所以，这种情况下，查看同步情况还是有点不直观。但是v$log_history和v$archived_log显示的log历史信息是从控制文件中取得的，所以说，如果要删除以前的记录，只有重建控制文件了。
（3）重建控制文件
sql> shutdown immediate
sql> startup nomount;
sql>create controlfile reuse database davenoresetlogsarchivelog
logfile
group 1 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/dave/redo01.log',
group 2 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/dave/redo02.log',
group 3 '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/dave/redo03.log'
datafile
'/u01/app/oracle/oradata/dave/sysaux01.dbf',
'/u01/app/oracle/oradata/dave/system01.dbf',
'/u01/app/oracle/oradata/dave/undotbs01.dbf',
'/u01/app/oracle/oradata/dave/users01.dbf'
character set zhs16gbk;
--注意，使用的是noresetlogs，如果使用resetlogs，dg就需要重新搭建了。
sql> alter tablespace temp add tempfile '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/dave/temp01.dbf' size 100m;
tablespace altered.
--添加临时表空间，在重建控制文件的时候，不能添加temp表空间，只能在控制文件重建好之后，在添加temp表空间。

（4）在次验证归档信息
主库：
sql> select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log;
max(sequence#)
--------------
9
sql> alter system switch logfile;
system altered.
sql> select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log;
max(sequence#)
--------------
10
sql> select sequence#,applied from v$archived_log;
sequence# app
---------- ---
8 no
7 no
9 no
9 yes
10 yes
10 no
6 rows selected.
sql> select sequence#,first_change#,next_change# from v$log_history;
sequence# first_change# next_change#
---------- ------------- ------------
912678281268212
1012682121274690
从这个结果来看，重建控制文件之后，之前的所有的有关归档的信息都会被删除。
备库：
sql> select max(sequence#) from v$archived_log;
max(sequence#)
--------------
10
sql> select sequence#,applied from v$archived_log;
sequence# app
---------- ---
3 yes
2 yes
5 yes
4 yes
6 yes
7 yes
8 yes
9 yes
10 yes
9 rows selected.
说明：
我这里是测试环境，所以重建控制文件测试一下，如果是生产环境，小心操作。
