This note outlines the required steps to create a physical standby database in Mixed environment using 11g RMAN Active Duplicate.
You can configure cross platform (database that runs on a different platform i,e. Linux and Windows) standby database using below Options:
I) Using RMAN Active database duplicate command starting from 11g onwards. Backup-based duplication will only work if we have same file system structure/backup available on sbt device.
II) Take online backup using RMAN/Traditional method & restore it on standby site.
II) Restore the offline backup of database.
Review below MOS document to check RMAN Mixed platform support:
<Note 1079563.1>: RMAN DUPLICATE/RESTORE/RECOVER Mixed Platform Support
<Note 413484.1>: Data Guard Support for Heterogeneous Primary and Standby Systems in Same Data Guard Configuration
