It will depend on how you plan to use active data guard with ebs. If you have read only reports that connect to the applications schema this should work - however if you are looking to configure an applications tier with this database and connect via the applications it will not - logging via an application user requires write access. Additionally the act of running a concurrent request inserts records into various fnd_ based tables. On a side note, if you do not need up to date data why not look into a snapshot standby instead.Or if you're on 10gR2, configure flashback for your standby open it read write - once you're done flash back and restart mrp...of course snapshot standby in 11g makes this easier for you to do. > >From: Kumar Madduri <ksmadduri@xxxxxxxxx> >To: oracle Freelists <Oracle-L@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> >Sent: Wed, 1 September, 2010 17:23:45 >Subject: Active Dataguard and Oracle Applications (Ebiz) > > >Hello >Has anyone enabled Active Dataguard in Oracle Applications ? >I have gone through the white paper and presentation at >http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/performance/s291920-meekssmith-130511.pdf > >and >http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/availability/maa-wp-11gr1-activedataguard-1-128199.pdf > > >Both of them dont talk about Ebusiness.
