Set up a standby database as a copy of the primary (production) database and use it for full system recovery (disaster recovery) and recovery from data corruption.
You can back up standby databases when they are either in an offline or online state.
When the database is online, the Oracle agent determines the standby database mode by checking the database role and automatically disables the log switch operation.
Before You Begin
Configure a standby instance for the Oracle database.
