Sanjay, Conversion between Standby types is non-existent. You have to drop the PSB, and re-instantiate an LSB. I don't know whether you are right or not, LSB is released with 9iR2, and certainly isn't very stable. I wouldn't rely on it for HA-purposes. For reporting, with restrictions in mind about unsupported data- and objecttypes, the cost of additional logging etcetera, it might help you. Don't jump into solutions, but get your requirements for standby written down properly first. Then determine whether a proposed solution will work. And test! You might consider (if space allows you) to have PSB as well as LSB. PSB for HA, LSB for reporting. Regards, Carel-Jan === If you think education is expensive, try ignorance.
