Hello all, we have an Oracle audit going on and we are being told we are
going to get charged for using Active Data Guard.
Has anyone been successful in working with Oracle to have them realize
these were unintentional and not deliberate?
Technically the feature was enabled, but it was by accident and incorrect
configuration of srvctl. As it happens, we had one standby database
configured with db_startoption=open, and the other standby database
with db_startoption=read
only.
The first was as a result of requiring a "failover" to physical standby and
we missed setting the db_startoption=mount when we rebuilt the standby on
the server that used to be primary.
Each of the problems have been corrected, but Oracle is working on a bill
and I'm looking for some advice from the group.
