RMAN>

Hello;

The orapwd file was copied...

Did you happen to rename it?

For example on my Primary system my password file is located here and name :

/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbs/orapwPRIMARY

So I copy it to the same location on my Standby server and rename it :

/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbs/orapwSTANDBY (So it becomes "orapwSTANDBY" )


Also make sure this parameter is set like this on both servers :


remote_login_passwordfile='EXCLUSIVE'


I have a short RMAN duplicate here : ( it assumes NET80, FORCED LOGGING, INIT, and LISTENER setup in advance)
