ora-01033 oracle initialization or shutdown in progress

Asked by Kerbeross in Oracle 8.x

Tags: Oracle, Oracle 8.1.7, 8.1.7, Activating standby database

Hi Experts,
I need to activate my standby database at DR in order to restore a table that was previously destroyed at primary. I had restored COLD backup a day before the incident. Successfully did, I applied some ARClog into the standby db, and also success.
Now i need to activate the db before starting to export out that one table, i then need to login into this standby db using id sc, same password. The problem occured like below.

Please help since I need to recover back this one table URGENTLY, or I'll get fired!

Your all experts help is kindly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
