Hi all, I need to create a second physical standby from an existing physical standby. If anybody has the steps or could point me in the right direction (e.g. Metalink doc), I would greatly appreciate it! And, would send a virtual beer your way (...a good one, like a Stone IPA<http://www.stonebrewing.com/ipa/>). - Environment is 11.2.0.3 Grid / ASM / 11.2.0.3 RAC db - Primary is in data center A - Existing Standby is in data center B - New Standby will be in data center B - Network from data center A to data center B is too slow to create the second Standby from the Primary What's the easiest way? Can I just rman/duplicate the existing Standby to the new Standby, then set up Data Guard from the Primary to the second Standby? (I think I can...) Thanks very much!
