I read about cascading databases. But my question was, does it really matter how the original standby is constructed (in my case I am not using DG to build the standby). Even in this case can I cascade from my standby to my DR standby (which I am planning to set it up using DG). Theoritically it should be fine. In that case, can I disable force loggin on production and enable force logging on standby only. That way I would minimize any performance impact. So primary no force logging > standby (using old method of applying redo) has force logging . THis is used as source for standby on DR site (which will use DR).
