Oracle standby archive_lag_target tips
Server Tips by Burleson Consulting

Question: I have implemented Data Guard
successfully with the help of the people on this website! Thanks. I have set the
archive_lag_target = 600 (10 minutes) and everything seems fine, except I
get the follow error on the data guard screen in Grid Control.
ORA-16792: configuration property value is
inconsistent with database setting
It seems to function fine, but if I press the “Verify Configuration” button in
Grid Control on the Data Guard screen, it goes though the verification process,
sets the archive_lag_target to zero, and clears the ORA-16792 error. I
set the value like this.
alter system set archive_lag_target = 600;
I tried using this command
alter system set archive_lag_target = 600
scope=spfile;
and the message said “system altered” but the value was still zero. The
value also sets itself back to zero during a shutdown/restart when I do nightly
backups. What am I doing wrong? I used the alter system set
archive_lag_target = 600 scope=both; and it sets the value correctly, but it
still sets things back to Zero during a shutdown/startup and I'm still getting
the ORA-16792 error.
Answer: On the data guard verification wizard
in Grid control I found a Broker Managed option and a DB option for fixing the
problem. I'd been using the Broker option, so I used the other one which I
believe wrote the value to the init.ora file, and this seems to have fixed the
problem.
