Has anyone configured a logical standby database using dataguard ie dgmgrl. I've done the following but i get an error, see bottom, has anyone done this, this is my first attempt at creating a logical standby, do I need to follow the steps in the Oracle DataGuard manual chapter 4 (Creating a logical standby) or does dgmgrl take care of everything! Am trying to add repn as the logical standby. Any help would be greatly appreciated. DGMGRL> add database 'repn' as connect identifier is repn maintained as logical; Database "repn" added.
