With Data Guard, you have the choice between Physical and Logical Standby databases. Let’s see the differences! My demo starts with a Physical Standby, that is then converted into a Logical Standby (therefore the name of the database): [oracle@uhesse1 ~]$ dgmgrl sys/oracle@prima

For now, logst is still a Physical Standby. It is called that way, because the datafiles of prima and logst are physically identical. I can even restore them from one side to the other: DGMGRL> edit database logst set state=apply-off; Succeeded.

SYS@prima > alter database datafile 4 online; Database altered. The datafiles and also the archived logfiles are physically identical on both sites here, only the controlfiles are different. v$database (like v$datafile, by the way) derives its content from the controlfile: SYS@prima > select name,dbid,database_role from v$database; NAME DBID DATABASE_ROLE -------------------------------------------------- ---------- ---------------- PRIMA 2012613220 PRIMARY SYS@prima > connect sys/oracle@logst as sysdba Connected.

One significant change is that the DBID and the name is now different from the primary database as you see above. And the datafiles are no longer physically identical: DGMGRL> edit database logst set state=apply-off; Succeeded.

Exactly. logst is now an autonomous database that is just incidentally doing (nearly) the same DML as prima does. It is no longer Oracle-Block-wise the same as prima. The rowids from prima have no meaning on logst any more: DGMGRL> edit database logst set state=apply-on;
Succeeded.

ROWID DEPTNO DNAME LOC
------------------ ---------- -------------- -------------
AAADS8AAEAAAACNAAE 50 TEST TEST
This rowid is what we normally record in the redo entries and it would be sufficient to retrieve that row on the primary and also on a physical standby where we do “Redo Apply” (another term for “recover database”). But that rowid is different on logst: SYS@logst > connect sys/oracle@logst as sysdba Connected. SYS@logst > select rowid,dept.* from scott.dept where deptno=50; ROWID DEPTNO DNAME LOC ------------------ ---------- -------------- ------------- AAADS8AAEAAAACOAAA 50 TEST TEST That is why we need to put additional information – supplemental log data – into the redo entries on the primary. It will help the SQL Apply mechanism to retrieve the row there:  Logical Standby Architecture The supplemental log data contains at least additionally the primary/unique key like on the picture. In the absence of primary/unique keys, every column of a modified row is written into the redo logs. That may impact the performance of the primary database. Another serious drawback of Logical Standby is that not every datatype and not every operation on the primary is supported for the SQL Apply mechanism. The number of unsupported datatypes decreases version by version, though. The demo and the sketch above are from my presentation about Transient Logical Standby at the Oracle University Expert Summit 2015 in Dubai – really an amazing location! Hope you find it useful :-) |
