well it's nice to hear that this problem still exists in 12c - i'm
very aware of it in 11.2.0.3

it's because the software isn't really able to handle the standby log
which is currently active. i have run into the exact same issue doing
a "recover datafile" on a clone which was created using a backup
controlfile from the standby. in my case, i simply used the backup
from the primary (and changed nothing else) and i don't have the
issue.


So we go to plan B, which is to try to create a new controlfile. The new
CREATE CONTROLFILE script doesn't specify the standby redo logs.

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01196: file 1 is inconsistent due to a failed media recovery session
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/file/name/here.dbf'

Every variation of this that we've tried fails similarly.

So you did also try taking a backup of the primary controlfile and
restoring this into the standby, then renaming all your logfiles and
datafiles to match the new locations? That has worked for me on 11203
for avoiding the error you mentioned above.
