I have created a standby database on Windows machine with version 10.2.0.1 For the first time for the database to sync I have copied the archive from the primary database. But on the switch from the primary database. The archive log doesn't ship to the standby database.
SQL> recover standby database;

Earlier I took the cold backup to move the files.
