Abstract

A method of automatically synchronizing a database with a backup database. The method automatically detects whether the backup database has fallen out of sync with the primary database which it mirrors. In response, a resynchronization process is automatically initiated in which the starting point for reading a redo log of the primary database is automatically determined and in which the backup database is automatically synchronized with the primary dataset.
