Can you mirror online logs onto a Standby remote server?

[ssmith]

We are using the Standard Edition of Oracle, and we have a Standby server set up. When we do a disaster recover, we apply all the archive logs but then open up the database 'resetlogs'. Can we mirror the online logs to the standby database, and then,once we have done a recovery, open the standby using the 'mirrored' online logs, so the Standby database will have no 'lag' behind the Primary database? Thanks. Rgds. Sheryl

Hi

No.
You should read the oracle documentation on using Datagaurd with no divergence and zero data loss.

Hi, thanks for the info. Do you know why you can't use the mirrored online logs?

We are using Oracle Standard and Dataguard is not available with this option. We use Dataguard on other sites that have the Enterprise license.

Thanks.

Isn't Dataguard an Enterprise Edition feature? Poster states to be running on Standard Edition.

Hi, I don't understand what you are asking?

As mentioned above, we are running on Oracle Standard, therefore we can't use Dataguard. This is why I am asking the question on using mirrored online logs. Thanks.

Please read again my post... I was asking hrishy and also making a note about you being running on SE.

In regards to your question, you already got your answer. If you do not truth hrishy why don't you try?

Thanks for your input. I just wanted to understand the reason why we can't use mirrored online logs for a standby database. Thanks. Rgds. Sheryl
