Re: Point-in-time recovery in a standby db ?

It makes no sense to do point-in-time recovery on a standby database. When a database is in standby mode, it is in a constant state of recovery by applying copies of the primary database's archived redo logs. Nothing can be done to a database while it is in standby mode. Under Oracle 8i, you can take the database out of standby mode and put it in read-only mode. When a database is changed from standby mode to "open", then you can do point in time recovery.
