Performing a Switchover using dataguard broker

DGMGRL> switchover to orcldr; Performing switchover NOW, please wait… Operation requires a connection to database “orcldr” Connecting … Connected to “ORCLDR” Connected as SYSDBA. New primary database “orcldr” is opening… Operation requires start up of instance “orcl” on database “orcl” Starting instance “orcl”… Connected to an idle instance. ORACLE instance started. Connected to “orcl” Database mounted. Switchover succeeded, new primary is “orcldr”
