How to Multiplex Control Files in Oracle 11g

Step 1:-Backup your current control file with a trace option
SQL> ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE;

Database altered.

Step-2: List all the controlfiles

SQL> select name from v$controlfile;

NAME
---------------------------------------------------------
/u01/app/oracle/oradata/prim/control01.ctl
/u01/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area/prim/control02.ctl


Step-3 Shutdown the database
SQL> shut immediate;
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.

Step 4:-Add one more controlfile
[oracle@server1 prim]$cp /u01/app/oracle/oradata/prim/control01.ctl /home/oracle/Multiplexed_control_files/control03.ctl

Step-5: Create PFILE using SPFILE
[oracle@server1 dbs]$ sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> create pfile from spfile;

File created.

[oracle@server1 prim]$ cd /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/dbs/
##Add the newly created control file.
[oracle@server1 dbs]$ vi initprim.ora
*.control_files='/u01/app/oracle/oradata/prim/control01.ctl','/u01/app/oracle/flash_recovery_area/prim/control02.ctl','/home/oracle/Multiplexed_control_files/control03.ctl'

:wq

Step 5:-Create SPFILE using PFILE
SQL> create spfile from pfile='/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/dbs/initprim.ora';
File created.

Step 6:- Start the database
SQL> startup
ORACLE instance started.
