Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: creating standby database
another reason is that even if loss of the secondary site doesn't crash your
primary, once the chain of auto-archiving to the remote site is broken, it
does not automatically resume once the network is back up.
More trouble than it's worth in my opinion... I'd rather ftp them manually, then I have more control.
