  Hello Anurag,
   
    Prior to 10GR2 many things can go wrong with logical standby. R2 is more 
stable, but still it is not rock solid. If your budget allows you may consider 
Shareplex - it is robust and much easier to diagnose.

    Hello friends,
  We are thinking of setting up a Standby database for reporting purposes 
during the business hours and after that apply the pending logs.
  We are considering various options of multiple physical standby databases, 
cascaded
redo log destinations and logical standby databases.
  Today, I was reading the Logical standby databases and their advantages.
  Have any of you guys thought about Logical standby databases 
while designing a standby database where it can be used for reporting purposes.
  
I want to know what are the reasons or disadvantages of Logical standby 
databases 
that prompted you for NOT TAKING Logical standby databases for such a design.
  
If you can give me some inputs, it would be really great...
  Thanks in advance,
   Anurag
