OCM 12c Preparation - Make the standby database available for testing

Make the standby database available for testing = Convert your Physical Standbys into Snapshot Standbys

Standby databases can become snapshot standbys with a single command line over DG Broker or SQLPlus.

What I recommend in this chapter is:

  • Convert a physical standby to snapshot standby using Broker. (preferable)
  • The same above using SQLPlus.

That’s it!
