Hi, You can defer it by log_archive_dest_2=defer; or set disable logical standby location by log_archive_dest_2='' Regards, Satheesh Babu.S -----Original Message----- From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Leng Kaing Sent: Thursday, September 28, 2006 11:11 AM To: oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: Turn off Dataguard 9.2 Thanks for this, Sateesh. I should have said that I'm only using the logical standby SQL command line interface. I'm not using data guard broker. So we do "EXECUTE DBMS_LOGSTDBY.BUILD;" to build the logical standby. Is there a command to "unbuild"?

Now, how do you go about turning off data guard altogether? What if I don't want the database to be replicated anywhere? Is it simply a matter of settting log_archive_dest_2 to null?
