RFS Process: Remote File Server (RFS) Process
The standby redo logs are populated with (to be filled) redo information as fast as the primary redo logs, rather than waiting for the redo log to be archived and shipped ( transferred) to the standby database. This means that the standby redo log has more current information than the log apply mechanism because it took a "shortcut" and was written to the standby, bypassing the traditional archiving and FTP to the standby database. ( this means that standby redo logs have more information than the current log application mechanism because it adopted a "shortcut" and was written to the spare, bypassing the traditional archive and FTP to the standby database.)
The synchronous and asynchronous redo transport modes require that a redo
transport destination have a standby redo log. A standby redo log is used to store redo
received from another Oracle database. Standby redo logs are structurally（结构上） identical to
redo logs, and are created and managed using the same SQL statements used to create
and manage redo logs.
Redo received from another Oracle database via redo transport is written to the
current standby redo log group by an RFS foreground process.
(Oracle database received from another Redo Redo written by RFS transmitted through the current standby foreground process Redo log group)
When a log switch occurs on the redo source database, incoming redo is then written to the next standby redo log group, and the previously used standby redo log group is archived by an ARCn foreground process.
The process of sequentially filling and then archiving redo log file groups at a redo
source database is mirrored at each redo transport destination by the sequential filling
and archiving of standby redo log groups.
Each standby redo log file must be at least as large as the largest redo log file in the
redo log of the redo source database. For administrative ease, Oracle recommends that
all redo log files in the redo log at the redo source database and the standby redo log at
a redo transport destination be of the same size.
The standby redo log must have at least one more redo log group than the redo log at
the redo source database, for each redo thread at the redo source database. At the redo
source database, query the V$LOG view to determine how many redo log groups are in
the redo log at the redo source database and query the V$THREAD view to determine
how many redo threads exist at the redo source database.
Cases Where Redo Is Written Directly To an Archived Redo Log File
Redo received by a standby database is written directly to an archived redo log file if a
standby redo log group is not available or if the redo was sent to resolve a redo gap.
Standby database archive log is written from the standby log in, but if the standby database log backup is not available, or the main library and library equipment has gap, this time can be written to by the library through the main library archive logs for recovery and application .
When this occurs, redo is written to the location specified by the LOCATION attribute of
one LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameter that is valid for archiving redo received from
another database. The LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameter that is used for this purpose is
determined when the standby database is mounted, and this choice is reevaluated
each time a LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_n parameter is modified.
Here is the general path to the backup archive library log_archive_dest_2 transmission setting.
Apply Services
Apply redo data on the standby database to maintain transactional
synchronization with the primary database. Redo data can be applied either from
archived redo log files, or, if real-time apply is enabled, directly from the standby
redo log files as they are being filled, without requiring the redo data to be
archived first at the standby database.
applying the redo that it contains. However, you can enable real-time apply, which
allows apply services to apply the redo in the current standby redo log file as it is
being filled
