Thank you all for your responses. After I sent the mail, I realized that active data guard does not work for ebiz at all (even not bothering about licensing). Even a simple concurrent manager start requires to submit a concurrent request which inserts a record in fnd_concurrnet_requests and also the login processes itself has to insert a record in to icx_sessions.
