Geographic Edition Properties for Oracle Data Guard Broker Configurations

Language:

This appendix describes the properties for Geographic Edition data replications that use Oracle Data Guard.

Oracle Data Guard Broker Replication Component Properties

This section describes the Oracle Data Guard broker replication component properties that the Geographic Edition software defines.

Data replication component property: local_database_name (string)

Name of the local Oracle database in the Oracle Data Guard broker configuration that is being replicated to the remote cluster. This name is the Oracle db_unique_name initialization parameter for the Oracle database on the local cluster.

Category:: Required
Default:: None
Tunable:: At creation

Data replication component property: local_db_service_name (string)

Oracle net service name that is used to connect to the local Oracle database.

Category:: Required
Default:: None
Tunable:: Any time

Data replication component property: local_oracle_svr_rg_name (string)

Name of the local Oracle database server resource group that manages the local database in the Oracle Data Guard broker configuration. A shadow Oracle database-server resource group shadows the real resource group. If you want, add the shadow to the protection group application resource group list.

Note - The previous name of this property, local_rac_proxy_svr_rg_name, is still valid.

Category:: Required
Default:: None
Tunable:: At creation

Data replication component property: remote_database_name (string)

Name of the remote database in the Oracle Data Guard broker configuration that is being replicated from the local cluster. This name is the Oracle db_unique_name initialization parameter for the Oracle database on the remote cluster.

Category:: Required
Default:: None
Tunable:: At creation

Data replication component property: remote_db_service_name (string)

Oracle net service name that is used to connect to the remote Oracle database.

Category:: Required
Default:: None
Tunable:: Any time

Data replication component property: remote_oracle_svr_rg_name (string)

Name of the remote Oracle database-server resource group on the partner cluster that manages the remote database in the Oracle Data Guard broker configuration. A shadow Oracle database-server resource group shadows the real resource group. If you want, add the shadow to the protection group application resource group list.

Note - The previous name of this property, remote_rac_proxy_svr_rg_name, is still valid.

Category:: Required
Default:: None
Tunable:: At creation

Data replication component property: replication_mode (string)

The Oracle Data Guard replication mode between the primary database and the standby database.

Valid values to which you set this property include maximumAvailability, maximumPerformance, and maximumProtection.

Category:: Required
Default:: None
Tunable:: Any time

Data replication component property: standby_type (string)

Type of Oracle standby database that is used in the Oracle Data Guard broker configuration.

Valid values to which you set this property include logical, physical, and snapshot.

Category:: Required
Default:: None
Tunable:: Any time

Data replication component property: sysdba_password (string)

Password for the Oracle SYSDBA privileged database user.

Do not specify a password on the command line. If you specify only -p sysdba_password=, the geopg command prompts you to type an actual password, which is not displayed as you type it.

Category:: Required if an Oracle wallet is not used
Default:: None
Tunable:: Any time

Data replication component property: sysdba_username (string)

Name of an Oracle SYSDBA privileged database user who can perform the Oracle Data Guard broker switchover and takeover operations on both the primary and standby clusters. Use this property to monitor and manage the Oracle Data Guard broker configurations.
