Some time ago my colleague Pavel Tolstorukov asked me for help with failing DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY FROM ACTIVE DATABASE. The problem appeared during the recovery phase.

Migrating from Windows to Linux with Active Duplicate for standby – problem with 11.2.0.4
Recently I was working on migrating Oracle 11.2.0.4 database running on Windows, to new hardware infrastructure on Linux. This Oracle version is with us for quite a long time, plus migration from Windows to Linux is quite common (fortunately in that direction…;)), so when I got an error while trying to use Active Duplicate feature to create a standby database, I was quite sure I’ll be able to quickly find the solution either in MOS or elsewhere. Indeed, I found several blog posts with exactly the same error, but solution mentioned there was not working for me.
Change is the only constant...
