NON-RAC:
select process,status,client_process,thread#,sequence#,block#,blocks,delay_mins from v$managed_standby;

select inst_id,process,status,client_process,thread#,sequence#,block#,blocks,delay_mins from gv$managed_standby;

STARTING MRP0
=============
If a non-real-time apply standby then issue the following SQL statement to start Redo Apply:

alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;
--OR--
RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION PARALLEL 64;

SQL> SELECT open_mode FROM V$DATABASE;

OPEN_MODE
--------------------
MOUNTED

If a real-time apply standby then issue the following SQL statement to start Redo Apply:

alter database recover managed standby database using current logfile disconnect from session;

SQL> SELECT open_mode FROM V$DATABASE;

OPEN_MODE
--------------------
READ ONLY WITH APPLY

Now that the standby is in real-time query mode (that is, the standby is open in read-only mode and Redo Apply is active).

status of mrp:
NON-RAC:
select process,status,client_process,thread#,sequence#,block#,blocks,delay_mins from v$managed_standby;
RAC:
select inst_id,process,status,client_process,thread#,sequence#,block#,blocks,delay_mins from gv$managed_standby;

alter database open readonly;
