  1. Find background_dump_dest on the standby database
  2. Create two directories on the primary database (with and without the trailing slash) for example:
    • Create directory QUEST_SOO_BDUMP_DIR_STDBY_1 as '/u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/spotl105/spotl105/trace/';
    • Create directory QUEST_SOO_BDUMP_DIR_STDBY_2 as '/u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/spotl105/spotl105/trace';
  3. Ensure the directory has been replicated to the standby (this may take some time depending on your data guard setup)
