There is absolutely no way Data Guard will *automatically* failover. On 5/17/07, JOHNSTON, WAYNE <wjohnsto@xxxxxxxx> wrote:
I am new to Data Guard and am hoping to get some help on the following. I am investigating the use of Data Guard to keep a DR site database current with a production database (last archive log applied). I have identified the parameters needed to do this, but want to be sure that there is no automatic failover to this DR site if the primary database becomes unavailable. I do not intend to set up any 'failover' in the Oracle Net configuration. Is there anything built into Data Guard that could cause an automatic 'failover' if the primary database is unavailable? Thanks for any help on this. *****Wayne Johnston* *****Adabas Database Administrator* *Oracle Database Administrator* *FCCJ: 904-997-2907 * *CELL: 904-607-1889* No one shall be subjected to arbitrary arrest, detention or exile.
