Hi Alessandro,

10g Reference:

"DB_UNIQUE_NAME specifies a globally unique name for the database. Databases
with
the same DB_NAME within the same DB_DOMAIN (for example, copies of a
database
created for reporting or a physical standby) must have a unique
DB_UNIQUE_NAME.
Every database's DB_UNIQUE_NAME must be unique within the enterprise."

This parameter is replace for the param. LOCK_NAME_SPACE, which is important
for identifying the shared mem. segments for oracle instance to attach.

9i Reference:

"LOCK_NAME_SPACE specifies the namespace that the distributed lock manager
(DLM) uses to generate lock names. Consider setting this parameter if a
standby or
clone database has the same database name on the same cluster as the primary
database.
If the standby database resides on the same file system as the primary
database, set
LOCK_NAME_SPACE in the standby initialization parameter file to a distinct
value
such as the following:
LOCK_NAME_SPACE = standby"

If  you use Data Gruard Broker, the service used to access the db. must be
configured with GLOBAL_DBNAME like: db_unique_name_DGMGRL.db_domain.

Also, DG identify all databases in the DG configuration according to this
parameter.

Regards,
goran

Hi everybody,
I've configured a couple of primary/standby (physical) databases on two
separated hosts, 10.1.0.5, RHEL ES3.

I've read DG Concepts and Administration manual, but I'm a little confused
about some parameters:

Q1. DB_UNIQUE_NAME: is it mandatory to have them different when DG is on
separated hosts?

Q2. INSTANCE_NAME: the same as Q1 + can be omitted?

Thanks for your help,

Alessandro
