AFAIK, 9iDataGuard in the current release is only a Physical Standby database (not "logical standby database"). This is similar to 8i except for the fact that, if you ensure that you do a clean failover-and-failback (ie have the controlfiles and online redo log files available) you can actually switch to and from the standby.
Never tried it and wouldn't try it till 9.0.2 (at the minimum) Hemant "Miller, Jay" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 01/12/2001 05:45 AM Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please respond to ORACLE-L To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: (bcc: CHITALE Hemant Krishnarao/Prin DBA/CSM/ST Group) Subject: RE: Has anyone heard of "Mirror Accessible"?

And it might explain why they were keen on having us upgrade to 9i. That's the problem with receiving the request filtered through two additional levels of people. Jay Miller -----Original Message----- Sent: Friday, November 30, 2001 1:56 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L 9i has a new feature on standby databases that let's you run reports in read only while continuing the managed recovery. I think they call it a logical standby database. See the 9i DataGuard manual for more information. (I just happened to be looking into this lately). This might be what they are talking about.
