Performing switchover NOW, please wait...
Operation requires a connection to instance "std" on database "std"
Connecting to instance "std"...
Connected.
New primary database "std" is opening...
Operation requires startup of instance "pr" on database "pr"
Starting instance "pr"...
Unable to connect to database
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

Failed.
Warning: You are no longer connected to ORACLE.   -- This we can resolve & start the primary db as mount automatically (Working to resolve)
Please complete the following steps to finish switchover: 
        start up and mount instance "pr" of database "pr"

Note: Other mrp process will be started automatically

======================================
After Converting the Primary database to Standby – Verify Sync, config
======================================

In Primary Database converted as standby database – IP (10.0.0.1)

SQL> startup mount
ORACLE instance started.

Now – Verify the Standby database

Here Standby Database converted as primary database - Successfully Perform the Switchover & Open the database as “OPEN” Mode

Hence the MRP Process is started & shipped the archivelog  etc – Therefore the Primary DB as Standby DB & Standby DB as Primary DB


====================================
Before Switchover from Standby to Primary – Perform the Vice Versa (Standby DB as Standby & Primary DB as Primary)
====================================

In Standby DB
