No true,
I do this on a regular basis ...
Step 1. Create dictionary
Step 2. scp archive files from both nodes on RAC to a development box.
Step 3. Fireup logminer script to load all archive files needed
Step 4. Create physical table as select * from v$logmnr_contents [with optional
where_clause]
Never fails. But if you don't have the exported dictionary, yes you'll see hex
data.
