Because of
archivelog gap there was the need to copy archive log file from primary Exadata
to standby Exadata. Primary Exadata archivelogs
are at ASM disk group RECOC1 at first datacenter, standby Exadata is the same
at 2nd datacenter).
Documentation
about asmcmd give us some examples to copy files from ASM to local file system
and to remote file system. But I found no example to copy from ASM@host1 -->
ASM@host2. So, let’s try to do this.
I login to
standby (target) server and create the temporary directory:
[oracle@ var01vm01 ~]$ asmcmd
ASMCMD> ls
DATAC1/
RECOC1/
ASMCMD> cd recoc1
ASMCMD> ls -l
Type Redund Striped Time
Sys Name
Y ASM/
N DATA_PUMP/
Y SPUR/
Y SPURSTB/
Y SPURTST/
ASMCMD> mkdir yu
ASMCMD> cd yu
ASMCMD> pwd
+RECOC1/yu
Now the directory
created and next step is to know the our service name to copy archivelogs to.
The doc say:
The doc say:
--service service_name Specifies the Oracle ASM
instance name if not the default +ASM.
The
immediate question here: what we should to use - a service name (ASM) or instance
name (ASM1?
Let's look
to our listeners:

OK, this
listener is listening on the bondeth0 interfaces and it will be our target. The
service is ASM, the instance name is ASM1.
Now we need

The “thread_1_seq_123971.511.972663381”
is the alert log file name we need to copy.
Let’s try
service name “+ASM”:
ASMCMD> cp thread_1_seq_123971.511.972663381 sys@172.22.140.1.+ASM:+RECOC1/yu

Then we’ll

What’s the

Let’s try
the opposite way: run copy on the target system. The syntax of command is
obvious:
ASMCMD> cp sys@10.63.140.1.+ASM1:+recoc1/spur/ARCHIVELOG/2018_04_05/thread_1_seq_123971.511.972663381

I added the

So there is
no reason no copy this file ....
I think the
reason is difference in source and target versions:
Source GI version is 12.2.0.1.0.180717 (12.2.0.1 + Jun
2018 quarter patch)
Target GI version is 18.0.0.0.0.181017 (18.4 + Oct

help cp
cp
Copy files between Oracle ASM disk groups on local
instances to and from remote instances.
Synopsis
cp [--target <target>] [--service <name>] [--port <port>]
[--dest_dbname <name>] [--sparse] [--sparse_merge_begin]
<[connect_str:]src_file...> <[connect_str:]tgt_file> [--sparse_merge_end
<sparse_merge_end_file>]
Description
The options for the cp command are described below.
--target
- Argument for target option could be either ASM,
IOS, or APX,
depending which type of instance ASMCMD
needs to be connected to copy the file or files.
--service -
Name of the ASM instance name if not default +ASM.
--port
- Listener port number, default is 1521.
--dest_dbname - Only used if target
file is in a diskgroup.
Specified name will be used as the root directory
instead of using the default (either ASM, IOS, or
APX, depending which target was specified). If
this option is used, the system alias root path
will be +<DG>/<name>/
--sparse
- Indicates that it is a sparse copy of a file.
--sparse_merge_begin - Beginning depth of a sparse file to be merged.
--sparse_merge_end - Ending depth of a sparse file to be merged.
connect_str - The
connection string to be used with a remote
instance copy.
src_file
- Name of the source file to copy. Use of wild cards
is supported.
tgt_file
- A user alias for the created target file name or
alias directory name.
cp cannot copy files between two remote instances. The local Oracle
ASM instance must be either the source or the target of the operation.
You can use the cp command to:
Copy files from a disk group to the operating system
Copy files from a disk group to a disk group
Copy files from the OS file system to a disk group
Some file types cannot be the source or destination of the cp command.
These file types include OCR and SPFILE file types.
To back up, copy, or move an ASM SPFILE, use the spbackup, spcopy,
or spmove commands.
To copy OCR backup filetype, the source
must be from a disk group.
connect_str is not required for a local instance copy, which is the
default case. In the case of a remote instance copy, you must specify
the connect string and Oracle ASM prompts for a password in a
non-echoing prompt. The connect_str is in the form of:
user, host, and SID are required in the connect_str parameter. The
default port number is 1521.
--service - name of the ASM instance name
if not default +ASM.
connect_str - The connection string to be used with a
remote instance
src_file must be either the a fully qualified file name,
system-generated name, or Oracle ASM alias.
The format of copied files is portable between Little-Endian and
Big-Endian systems if the files exist in an ASM disk group. ASM
automatically converts the format when it writes the files. For copying
a non-ASM files from or to an ASM disk group, you can copy the file to
a different endian platform and then use one of the commonly used
utilities to convert the file.
Examples
The following are examples of the cp command.
The first example shows a copy of a file in the data disk group to
a file on the operating system.
The second example shows a copy of several files in the data diskgroup
to a directory on the operating system.
The third example shows a copy of a file on the operating system to
the DATA disk group. The --dest_dbname option was used, so the system
alias for the copied file will be stored under +DATA/DB1/DATAFILE
instead of using the default +DATA/ASM/DATAFILE.
The fourth and fifth examples shows how to copy files from ASM to
remote server (OS file).
The sixth example shows how to copy a remote OS File to DATA diskgroup.
The seventh example shows how to copy a remote OS File to DATA diskgroup
when listener port is not default.
The eight example shows how to make a sparse copy of a file between
sparse diskgroups.
The ninth example shows how to make a sparse copy of multiple sparse
files.
Sparse merge: Consider a multi-level sparse file hierarchy having sparse
files
SPARSE.205.14770227--SPARSE.241.14770227--SPARSE.257.71740127--SPARSE.259.91640227
where SPARSE.205.14770227 is the base parent and SPARSE.241.14770227
is the parent of SPARSE.257.71740127, which in turn is the parent of
SPARSE.259.91640227.
The tenth example shows how to merge multiple sparse files into a
new destination file (out-of-place merge).
The eleventh example shows how to merge multiple sparse files into an
existing sparse file (in-place merge).
sys is the user
name on the remote server
password is the password of the user.
server is the remote server name
/scratch/file OS file.
If password is not included in the command line, you are prompted to
enter the password.
