Guys,
Our rep. says that Oracle considers "active" to be updating a standby = database with logs on a regular basis. Whereas, I consider it to be the = database being used by end-users for some business requirement. What is = everyone's experience with licensing a DR site????
In this article it states Oracle does not charge for backup database = server unless it is used over 10 days a year.
