ORA-01153: an incompatible media recovery is active

 , ,

When trying to start or increase parallel of recover manager on datagauard (MRP):

SQL> ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01153: an incompatible media recovery is active

I simply happen because there already are a process runnning, let’s check:

SQL> select PROCESS,CLIENT_PROCESS,THREAD#,SEQUENCE#,BLOCK# from v$managed_standby where process = 'MRP0' or client_process='LGWR';
PROCESS   CLIENT_P    THREAD#  SEQUENCE#     BLOCK#
--------- -------- ---------- ---------- ----------
MRP0      N/A               1         26          0

If you want to change it, it’s just stop it first and then start with the clauses you want:

SQL> alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
Database altered.
SQL> ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;
Database altered.

See ya!
