Kevin,

 

I thought the pre-requisite to create a standby database is it should have the same OS level and Oracle version as primary.  Am I wrong ?

And what is the problem with having a standby DB on a different OS than the primary ???

Hi,

 

How can I archive redo logs automatically to a different machine ?.  Standby database is not an option because the target machine's OS is different from the primary. 

 

Primary db is 8.1.7.2 resides on SUN E10k with SunOS 5.8.

Target server is DEC Alpha 4.0

 

If UNIX script is the only option, I appreciate if you can share it here.

 

Thanks,

 

Bala.
