Is it possible to have a 10g (R1) LOGICAL standby db in read-ONLY mode?

From what I've gathered reading the 10g (R 1) docs, the logical standby turns read-only when applying sql, and then in read-write mode otherwise. I have to meet a requirement that the remote database be strictly in read-only mode the entire time (so as to not risk writing to it), as well as being as up-to-date as possible off the primary. (Hence I decided on the logical vs. the physical) Does anyone pls. know if I can keep the logical read-only all the time?
Much appreciated,
Sophie

Oh, Ok. I guess i interpreted it differently. The direct quote from the docs: "Although the logical standby database is opened in read/write mode, its target tables for the regenerated SQL are available only for read-only operations." So I guess what it means, as you suggest, is the entire set of tables from the primary, and not just those few that happened to be updated at that particular time frame, are kept in read-only the entire time...

  • It is possible to apply redo while the standby is open in read only mode ?

    Hi,
    I am using Oracle 11g R2 (11.2.0.1.0)
    Step 1: Two node RAC is Configured.
    Step 2: One node Data Guard RAC is configured.( i,e Standby is one node RAC).
    Primary:
    SQL> select open_mode,database_role,PROTECTION_MODE,PROTECTION_LEVEL from v$database;
    OPEN_MODE DATABASE_ROLE PROTECTION_MODE PROTECTION_LEVEL
    READ WRITE PRIMARY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY
    Standby:
    SQL> select open_mode,database_role,PROTECTION_MODE,PROTECTION_LEVEL from v$database;
    OPEN_MODE DATABASE_ROLE PROTECTION_MODE PROTECTION_LEVEL
    READ ONLY WITH APPLY PHYSICAL STANDBY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY MAXIMUM AVAILABILITY
    Question:
    I have not purchased active dataguard license.
    In my case In Data Guard RAC it is possible to apply redo while the database is open in read only mode?
    Thanks

    "READ ONLY WITH APPLY" in V$DATABASE.OPEN_MODE means Active Data Guard is enabled.
    Oracle code cannot check if you have the right license: it is up to you to know which license you have for your database environments.

  • Possible to make an item editable for certain users and read only for other

    Is it possible to make an item editable for certain users and read only for others?
    I've been able to accomplish this by taken the select statement that I used to define an authorization scheme, placing it in the Read Only condition of the item. However, I would like to simply reference the authorization scheme to utilize caching, and to help keep things cleaner for future maintenance.
    Is it possible to reference an authorization scheme in an item condition similar to the way another item can be referenced by preceding it with a colon (i.e. :P1_First_Name)?

    Thank you, your suggestion worked.
    It would be nice on a future release of APEX if a drop-down box existed under the Ready Only section that would allow an existing Authorization Scheme to be selected or negated when applying the Read Only attribute to a form item.

  • I have an external hard drive but it is read only on my macbook.

    I have an external hard drive but it is read only on my macbook. I have tried my friends which works on his macbook but this is also read only on mine. Do I need to change any settings?

    Here's my lo-tech solution (if you have Parallels) to this frustrating problem:
    Eject your hard drive.
    Unplug (USB) your hard drive from the MAC .
    Start Parallels.
    When Windows has started, plug your drive back into the MAC.
    You should get a little screen asking if you want the drive to be utilized by MAC or Windows. Select Windows.
    Use Windows to copy your files over to the hard drive.
    This is less than ideal and not a long-term solution, but I was afraid of attempting any reformatting since I have many files on my hard drive. 
    Just remember that Windows has to be running first, before you plug in your hard drive.

  • I mounted my external hard drive to a pc and now I don't have edit or write permissions on my Mac (read only). How do I get them back without erasing the drive?

    Hello all, I am a photographer and have my portfolio, edited and raw images backed up on a Seagate Free Agent External Hardrive. I mounted my external hard drive to a pc recently and now I don't have edit or write permissions to it on my Mac (read only). How do I get them back without erasing the drive and loosing my valuable work?

    If you re-format it you will lose all the data on it!!!!! So make sure you have backed up the drive or moved all the data on it to another external HD or the internal HD on your iMac.
    Below is an Apple Advice letter that explains how to format an external HD, it's written for Aperture but you can use the instructions to formate any external HD.

  • How do I run a script so that the user does not have to click into and out of a read-only calculated numeric field?

    Hi all
    I have a read-only calculated field, and I want to build actions on it, dependent on what the answer to the calculated field is.
    I have used action builder, and it works, but only if the form filler clicks in and out ("exits") the field, which they didn't have to enter in the first place, because it populates as a result of a previous script.
    To be more precise, The questions asked before this field are:
    Date of submission (submitdate):
    Date of event (eventdate):
    Calculation occurs (days between event and submission), and answer is populated in a field called 'daysbetween'
    Now I have a set of conditions:
    If the daysbetween is < or = 14, then I want a message to come up saying ineligible to apply
    If the daysbetween is >14 and < or = 28, then I want a message to come up saying a fast track fee will be applied, and I want the fast track fee box to be populated, and I want the fast track fee box to appear.
    I used the action builder to get all of this to work, except that it only works if the user then clicks in and out of  the 'daysbetween' field, which they shouldn't have to, because it's already calculated for them
    I feel like I have to put this script in an earlier field...but I don't know where - action builder won't let me do it in the 'eventdate' field
    Thanks in advance

    Put a shift register on the border of your loop. Have a case statement that contains the "Get time" function in one case of the case statement. Make that case = 3 and wire the loop iteration to the case selector. Have the time value loaded onto the shift register in the "2" case (interations count from zero), have the shift register passed through on all others ("Default"). Then subtract this time from current to get elapsed time. You probably want to put the subtraction/comparison in a "sub-case" in the "default" that only is valid for interations > 3 or you will get some really ugly "times" until the shift register is loaded, or you could initialize it from outside the loop with the time, but this will cause it to show elapsed times from the beginning that suddenly jump back to a low number after iteration 2.

  • Is it possible to Update Powerpoint slides from the Sharepoint slide-library using Macros when its in read-only mode?

    As Wendy Li informed that PPT ask you to update from slide library automatically. But this happens only if the slides are saved in your system(in read write mode). Is it possible to run the updates automatically on Read-only slides as well.
    Thanks.
    Old:
    Currently I'm executing the task manualy by using the Check for updates option. But I'm willing to develop a macro code which can be executed when the slide is open and automatically replaces the slides with the latest one from the Slide-Library. Any links
    to pre-existing code will be helpful. Thanks.

    Hi SamGoe,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to update the PoerPoint slide from SharePoint 2010 slide library automatically.
    It seems to be not necessary to use Macros. SharePoint provides an OOB way to notify you to check for update to the slide library slides when you open the presentation. PowerPoint does this because you selected the option
    Tell me when this slide changes when you copied the slides from the library.
    More information, please refer to the link below:

  • Is it possible to have a domain/user in BPEL PM with read access only?

    Hi,
    We deploy, undeploy, purge process and instances using the BPEL PM through the domain credentials. Is it possible to create a domain/profile/user in BPEL PM, through which we can only view the processes and the instances deployed in BPEL PM?
    This could be similar to one we have in Oracle Database, wherein we grant read access on some objects to another schema/user.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Prem.

    no, not in 10.1.2.0.2
    Alternative, you can create your own BPEL Console based on the BPEL AP and JSP.

  • Locking a subset of Wiki pages as read-only: Is this possible?

    I have a workspace setup where all participants have workspace-member role privilege which allows them to update content - and in particular - wiki pages. This is a business requirement for this particular site purpose.
    However - I would like to lock down one (or more) wiki pages within the pages on this workspace - as read-only.
    Is it possible to have some pages within a workspace locked as read-only to named users - while the other wiki pages are available for update to workspace participants? If so - how?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    No, we cannot selectively lock down Wiki pages as read only unfortunately as we don't have access controls at the individual page level.
    However, what may be doable is for you to flag the page as non-changeable and to set up an RSS feed to the Wiki page and if anyone changes it you can go in an look at who did it and more importantly you can roll it back to the previous version as the change logs will be kept and can be backed out if required. There is an entry here: http://weblog.oraclecorp.com/weblog/team/Beehive that shows how to set up specific RSS feeds.
    Not ideal but a possible way of catching any unauthorized change and correcting it + giving you the culprit :-)

  • Install on SDCard/USB stick, toggle read-only filesystem - possible?

    This is something I thought about while installing Arch on an SD card earlier. You know these small switches on some SD cards that make them read-only, right?
    Would it be possible to have a setup where Archlinux is installed on a rewritable storage device like an USB Stick or an SD card, where one mode of operation would be to use it like a regular, persisting Arch install (with writeable filesystem). The second mode would be to use it similar to a Live CD, not persisting any data on the storage device and using RAM instead (mounting the root filesystem as read-only).
    Basically, you could boot into regular mode (perhaps by choosing a seperate entry in GRUB), change configurations, update packages, etc. Then you reboot into read-only mode and use it as a Live CD with any changes to the filesystem stored only in RAM. This could be combined with system encryption to provide a secure and portable Arch installation that can be kept up-to date and simply by rebooting, you have a protected, volatile environment similar to a Live CD.
    Is something like that possible? Has it been done already?

    Comment on the "why" for Flash Device....quiet operation, less power required, faster performance and reduced size.
    Faster boot time is also possible with raid applied.
    As previously stated, running all in ram doesn't provide any performance improvement if the system has at least 2GB of ram.  Thus the use of swap is not required with that much ram.
    This principle also applies to Flash Devices which have algortithms controlling the writes across the entire card capacity such that larger capacity increases lifetime expectancy.
    Copy- on- write is also proposed for flash devices which reduces the process steps for writing to flash.
    In my experience with running-in-ram with CTKArch "live" system, I found not much to endorse using that mode.  A negative of good proportion is the copy-to-ram loading time , which cannot be avoided.
    Basically, faster ram is the best approach for performance enhancement in all systems.
    Thus, there are herein some reasons for using flash in an arch booting system whether "live" or conventional or raid based.
    My raid0 bootable system was outlined in previous post and am using it now.  It is not a USB connected bus arrangement which inherently limits performance.
    I find Compact Flash in UDMA or true IDE mode to provide good performance speed of 90mb/s read and 25mb/s write to be a fine alternative to hard drives.  In raid0 read speed is doubled.  Good reason for flash devices but not in usb mode.

  • Dependent Values read only or all possible values

    Hello
    I have read the following instructions.
    [How to Configure Predefined Properties with Dependent Values (NW7.0)]|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/30b1ec90-0201-0010-6192-d3de721f8ae4?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]
    I need this scenario in the Portal search.
    So my question is:
    Is it possible, if Country is empty, that the field City is read only.
    In the How to guide you can see , if no city is selected the property city is a text field(not Dropdown) and you can enter a sting.
    Or it is possible, if no country is selected that the field city shows all possible cities, not restricted by countries.
    For example no country is selected and the field city shows all cities.
    or no country is selected and the field city is read only.
    The html code of dropdown list country is
    <option value="&lt;empty&gt;"><option value="Germany">Germany<option value="France">France
    Value of no selection
    &lt;empty&gt = <empty>
    If no country is selected the selected value is &lt;empty&gt or <empty>.
    I tried this:
    "dependon=Country,*=allcities,Germany=GermanyCity,France=FrenchCity" and so on.
    "dependon=Country,<empty>=allcities,Germany=GermanyCity,France=FrenchCity" and so on.
    "dependon=Country,&lt;empty&gt=allcities,Germany=GermanyCity,France=FrenchCity" and so on.
    without success
    Can some one help?

  • Is it possible to circumvent read-only after a pdf has been signed?

    Hi, my pdf has a signature field.  In the signed event I have make all fields read-only.  Is it possible for someone to come along and make them not read-only anymore?  It seems the easiest way to make my document tamper-proof.  Thank you.

    goodprogramming wrote:
    It's not the file that is set to read-only at the OS level.  The signature field has an event for signed.  Once that occurs I have the checkbox selected that says mark all fields as read-only.  I want to be sure it is really read-only and that there is no way to make it non-read-only.
    save as does not change the read onlyness of the pdf.  I have tried this.
    It shouldn't matter.
    Making changes to the file after the signature is added will invalidate the signature. You'll know someone has been messing around if the sig is invalidated.
    Even if you have a reason to do what you want, you can't. At least not without a very expensive Digital Rights Management solution plus a server to run it.

  • Read-Only iTunes library - possible?

    iTunes developers please note.
    I would like to share my iTunes library from a NAS to my household, but with a catch. The NAS export is setup as read/write for me because I am the one who controls the music library and my kids attach in read/only mode.
    The reason for this is that I have way spent too much time fixing broken links, missing track, wrongly downloaded cover art, etc - the result of 7 and 9 year olds not reading the text before clicking 'yes' or 'continue'
    I have seen other posts asking similar questions (using network drives, extreme length of time to import, etc) but not quite this specific.
    I guess I can live without a common podcast library on a NAS being a function but any help to solve this fat-finger problem greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Click on the item in the Finder's sidebar named Music, rename the iTunes folder inside, launch iTunes, and drag the iTunes folder into iTunes. This won't preserve playlists or other metadata.

  • 10g dataguard - physical standby database

    If i perform the below, will it affect my Production DB? I need it to be up and running as well.

    recover managed standby database cancel;

    alter database mount standby database;
    recover standby database until cancel;
    alter database activate standby database;
    thanks

    Hi,
    In 10g version, you can open database database with READ ONLY mode. In that case standby database
    recieve primary generated changes but not apply .
    I see you steps you using ALTER DATABASE ACTIVATE STANDBY DATABASE statement for activating database
    Activate the standby database using the SQL ALTER DATABASE ACTIVATE STANDBY DATABASE statement. This converts the standby database to a primary database, creates a new reset logs branch, and opens the database.*
    If you are not need convert standby database to primary database then , you must use only
    ALTER DATABASE OPEN READ ONLY;
