I have not done this, but I understand their intent.
Two databases with the same DBID should not be registered in a recovery
catalog,
as the DBID is the primary key used to identify a database.
You can register the primary or the standby in a catalog, but not both.
That doesn't mean you can't backup either/both, they just can't
both be in the same recovery catalog.
