1. Introduction

In this section, we will see how to Configure Dbvisit Standby Multiplatform on ODA machines. We are using the Primary database on-premise and the Standby database on ODA for demonstration purposes.

...


We will see in detail how to configure the standby database on ODA using Dbvisit standby v11.7.0.
For that first, we need to create an empty database using ODA with the same db_name and db_unique_name as that of primary. This will register your standby database in ODA. Once registered, delete standby database-related files. We will use Dbvisit Standby v11.7.0 to create the standby database in ODA.
