11g is becoming more and more interesting for many Companies.
Since last year I started to implement 11g Oracle Clusterware with 11g ASM and 10g RAC Databases; on the last months I did start to work on pure 11g environments soon to be production, so I thought that having experience on how to migrate 10g RAC environments to 11g was necessaire.
On this post I'm presenting a step by step procedure for migrating 10.2.0.3 Oracle Clusterware, ASM and RDBMS to 11g.
Each step is presented on a separate document:
10g Oracle Clusterware Upgrade to 11.1.0.7
10g ASM Upgrade to 11.1.0.7
10g RAC Database Upgrade to 11.1.0.7

This post explains how to manually convert the Physical Standby into the Primary database, when the Primary is not available anymore.
The procedure is very simple, still is convenient to have it available so that in the stress situation of a production crash we can implement it without problems.
Personally I prefer to work harder at the implementation stage and build an infrastructure strong enough to be configured using DG Broker, Observer and Fast Start Failover.
Step by Step details of manually converting the standby into the new primary can be found on this file How to open the standby when the primary is lost
