I am not a license expert by any stretch of the imagination, but in reading
the document, I didn't think it was the capability that had to be licensed
but rather the fact that you have to be covered by your licensing terms to
run Oracle instances on multiple servers. Either that or I have been spoiled
by all inclusive site licenses of the Enterprise Edition in the places I
have worked and perhaps these options are indeed licensed separately like
the partition and object options used to be (or are).

Hi Chris, 

 

I can't post directly to the list yet.  However, this document answers your
question.  The answer is yes, it must be licensed.

Years ago, I know we could have a standby database without having to license
dataguard.  If you setup the standby database yourself and used scripts to
apply the logs and gap analysis.

 

Do any of you know if you are required to license Dataguard now to be able
to use a standby database?  I was recently told by people in our office that
we weren't licensed for dataguard and therefore we weren't licensed for a
standby database.

 

Thoughts?
