Thank you, 

 

You hit the nail on the head.   I was starting to wonder, and appreciate
the answer as the behavior was unexpected.  Yes 10gR2.  

 

I had a couple private responses which --- didn't lead me to believe
they understood the question.

Joel,

 

I am assuming this is Oracle10gR2.  If yes, when you use STARTUP on a
physical standby database it mounts it as standby and opens read only.
If you just use STARTUP MOUNT, it mounts in standby mode. In other
words, the two methods you have included are same, as far as it is
Oracle10gR2.

 

Thanks

        Are these two the same?  Why does startup appear to work the
same?   In other words I could have a start 'all' script without making
exceptions for the READ ONLY standby database?   What is making it start
this way automatically.  (which is fine if it is correct).

        Startup nomount 

        alter database mount standby database;

        alter database open read onlyl;

        select open mode from v$database;

        READ ONLY

        shutdown immediate

        startup

        select open mode from v$database;

        READ ONLY
