    Your primary database will shutdown if you setup Maximum Protection Mode and the system is not able to write ReDo to at least one remote location; it shouldn't hang, it should shutdown.

    It has to shut down becasue of Maximum Protection Mode means ReDo has to be written to both local and remote sites at commit time. Maximum Availability Mode is like Maximum Protection Mode without this extra protection feature.

    If you find the same ReDo issue -inability to write to at least one remote site- and your setup is for Maximum Availability Mode database would automatically switch to Maximum Performance Mode until the issue gets solved then it will resume on Maximum Availability Mode.

    In none of these scenarios database should hang.
