If the DataGuard server is open in the read-only mode it must be licensed. I
believe the
inactive stand-by does not need licensing unless active for more than 10 days a
year.

Oracle sales told me we need to license the DataGuard servers just like prod
servers. I think the reasoning is there are active transactions occuring, but
I'm not sure about this.

Subject: a really non-technical question, help?
sorry, folks, but I though as many production DBAs
as are on this list, I might be able to get an answer
to this question. What I need to know is how Oracle
licensing works on a hot-standby (e.g., a VCS failover node).
In this case I'm thinking that the failover node will
never be running oracle *unless* the primary is dead.
Seems like a single system worht of CPUs to license
in my mind...any feedback ?
