Re: Data Guard 9ir2 - Data Guard Manager hangs on preparing primary database

I got it working...Oracle recommends 160MB shared memory. I figured since it was only a recommendation I could get by with less, but apprently it causes the process to hang and the wizard never gave any feedback.

Thanks for the help.
