ORA-17629: Cannot connect to the remote database server

rman tries to resync the standby from primary using db_unique_name.

However, RMAN is unable to connect to the primary because no connect string was used when connecting to the standby - 

in order to resync from another host in a Data Guard configuration , the connection to target must be made with a username, password and alias.  

This is documentation Bug 13774434: ORA-17629, ORA-17628 DURING RESYNC CATALOG FROM DB_UNIQUE_NAME ALL;


SoLUTION
Use a TNS connect string when connecting to the standby eg

rman target sys/sys123@primary_db catalog rman/rman@dbcat


RMAN> show all;

RMAN configuration parameters for database with db_unique_name SPRODSMU are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 2 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK;

CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
