SQL>recover managed standby database cancel;
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Issue the following query to find out if the standby database is performing Redo Apply or real-time apply. If the MRP0 or MRP process exists, then the standby database is applying redo

SQL> SELECT PROCESS, STATUS FROM V$MANAGED_STANDBY;

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. Check database tole, open mode using the below script. 

SQL>select name, database_role,open_mode from v$database;

NAME      DATABASE_ROLE        OPEN_MODE
---------     ------------------------------   ------------------
TESTP     PHYSICAL STANDBY      MOUNTED  

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5. Now open the database in OPEN READ ONLY mode. Use below SQL

TESTP    PHYSICAL STANDBY     READ ONLY

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

7. start redo apply using below SQL on standby database.

SQL>alter database recover managed standby database using current logfile disconnect;

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

8. Check database tole, open mode using the below script. 

SQL>select name, database_role,open_mode from v$database;

NAME      DATABASE_ROLE       OPEN_MODE
----------    -----------------------------    -----------------------------------
TESTP    PHYSICAL STANDBY     READ ONLY WITH APPLY

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


NOTE:

--------------------------------------------
Start Redo Apply or Real-Time Apply:
--------------------------------------------

- To start Redo Apply, issue the following statement:
