Dbvisit Standby 6.0.16 released

[Arjen Visser]

6.0.16 (9 January 2012)

New features:

1. New Create Standby Database (CSD) functionality which improves the overall ability to create different standby databases configurations.
   CSD now makes use of the following parameters:
   - db_file_name_convert
   - log_file_name_convert
2. Improved graceful switchover functionality. Existing controlfile is re-used for primary database and is no longer rebuild. Graceful switchover allows for more differences between primary and standby database.
3. Provide silent install for dbvisit_install. This installs product with all default values accepted. Type "dbvisit_install -?" for details.
4. Non existent directories on the standby server are automatically created as much as possible by Dbvisit Standby during creation of the standby database.

Fixes:

1. Issue with adding own ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME in web interface - fixed.
2. Dbvisit temp p2x-* directories not cleaned up for HP-UX and AIX - fixed.
3. Improve locking mechanism in rare cases when archive log file just arrives at the standby server and is 0 size and is picked up by Dbvisit Standby on the standby server.
4. Improved tracing of Dbvserver.
5. Obtain ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID from registry for Windows 2008R2.
