Resume the standby database connection

To start Mirror Activator for Oracle replication, you must resume the Replication Server connection to the standby database.

You must have “sa” permission in the Replication Server to perform this procedure.

To resume the Replication Server standby database connection

Log in to the Replication Server with “sa” permission.
Resume the standby database connection to start replication:
```
resume connection to sds.sdb
```
where:
- sds is the name of the standby data server.
- sdb is the name of the standby database.

If Replication Server drops the standby database connection or fails to begin replication after you invoke the resume connection command, see Chapter 4, “Troubleshooting Mirror Replication Agent,” or refer to the Replication Server Troubleshooting Guide for more information.

The Mirror Replication Agent instance will go to the Replicating state only if a connection for the primary database has been created in the primary Replication Server. For more information on creating the primary database connection in Replication Server, see Appendix C, “Mirror Replication Agent and Oracle Databases.”
