Question:
I'm working on dataguard and I'm looking for the best and easiest recovery mode using dataguard
i see the following options:


Snapshot Standby Database
Logical standby database
physical standby database


any recommendations on what is the best way with less limitations i do see that Logical standby has limitations on Unsupported Datatypes etc

has anyone have other comments ideas etc
thank you

Snapshot standbys and logical standbys are not used for any sort of recovery.

Can you explain what you mean by that? What you are trying to achieve? Note that that the redo apply delay is really only for backward compatibility, from release 10 database flashback gives better functionality.

I changed the settings on

ApplyLagThreshold 6500
TransportLagThreshold 30 ( had a few issues with this one)
TransportDisconnectedThreshold 0
ArchiveLagTarget 100

To achieve what exactly? or what are the effects of these settings?
And what were the issues you got with the second ones?

I thought that you waned to delay redo apply? That would be the DelayMins property. The ones you have listed are to do with fast-start failover.

yes - correct - I'm new to dataguard - i was getting warming messages

i no longer get warning or error messages

I'm trying now to setup dataguard for a DR test
option 1 is to fail to standby and then back to primary
option 2 is to fail to standby client tests and not to switch back to primary
