在将Data Guard调整为最大保护模式（MAXIMUM PROTECTION ）的时候，遇到了以下的问题ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel。
执行过程如下：
SQL> alter database set standby database to maximize PROTECTION;
alter database set standby database to maximize PROTECTION
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01126: database must be mounted in this instance and not open in any instance
SQL> shutdown immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
Oracle instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount
ORACLE instance started.

分析日志：
[oracle@dg1 bdump]$ tail -10f alert_WENDING.log

Instance terminated by LGWR, pid = 10086
其实，第一步处理过程，应该查询一下log_archive_dest参数，检查一下同步的方式以及AFFIRM 是否设定，其次就是standy log日志是否添加，这一切建立完成以后再进行日志检查。
可能在第一步检查完成之后就已经可以解决问题。
对了，还有一个要开启FLASHBACK_ON ；
分别将FLASHBACK_ON开启。
SQL> select FLASHBACK_ON from v$database;
FLASHBACK_ON
------------------
NO
SQL> alter database flashback on;
Database altered.
添加standy redolog
