Can flashback database be used with a Snapshot Standby

I have a Data Guard configuration with a Physical standby.  I would like to be able to convert the database to a Snapshot Standby and Flashback Database to an older point-in-time.

I have not enabled "apply delay", instead I have configured Flashback on the Physical database, sufficient to go back 48 hours in time.

So far testing was not successful with :

- Converting to Snapshot

- Restart and mount

- Attempting to Flashback database to an older point-in-time (for example 4 hours back)

It is complaining about not finding the right archive redo log file.

Is there something wrong in the approach?  or is it just not possible?

Howdy, Stranger!
