The process of creating Data Guard configuration manually is just so time-consuming. Decided to use Grid Control instead.
Ran into the problem described in (ERR=12528) When Attempting To Connect To Asm Instance From Grid Control (MetaLink Doc ID:303931.1) (except that the password file was already EXCLUSIVE because I used DBCA to create the ASM instance).
The database backup from padstow1 to botany1 failed because of block corruptions in the SYSAUX tablespace again! Will clean up and try again in the morning.
