StandbyAlternateLocation

The StandbyAlternateLocation configurable property specifies an alternate standby redo log archive location to use when the location specified by the StandbyArchiveLocation configurable property fails.

The property has database-specific scope, and the location that it specifies is applicable to all instances in a database.

Category	Description
Datatype	String
Valid values	An empty string, when no alternate location is desired. A directory specification that is accessible by the instance. A valid LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameter string with the LOCATION attribute specified, but no VALID_FOR, ALTERNATE, or SERVICE attributes.
Broker default	Empty string
Imported?	No
Parameter class	Dynamic
Role	Primary, standby, and far sync instance
Standby type	Physical, logical, or snapshot standby, or a far sync instance
Corresponds to	On the standby database or the far sync instance, the LOCATION attribute for the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n initialization parameter that represents an alternate destination of the local destination that matches the configurable property StandbyArchiveLocation.
Scope	Member
Cloud Control name	Alternate Standby Location

Note:

On a logical standby database, Oracle recommends the LOCATION attribute of the LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n initialization parameter for the local destination be different from the value of StandbyAlternateLocation configurable property.

These properties allow you to have the broker automatically manage the local archival of online and standby redo logs to the specified local destination. Do not use set log_archive_dest_n initialization parameters for local archival specifying that same destination.
