Handling Oracle Dataguard failover/failback

[Alex Wanderley]

Hello,

Is there anybody out there using Ansible playbooks to handle Oracle Dataguard's failover and failback operations?

We are working on automating the OS update process of Linux servers that host Dataguard pairs (they are not in the cloud) and that requires rebooting each primary/standby without breaking Dataguard's relationship.

At this point we are basically just relying on sequencing/timing which Dataguard node gets rebooted first, which I don't is the best solution.

Thanks a lot for any information/reference,

Alex
