Data Guard between different PSU Levels

edited Feb 13, 2019 4:04AM in High Availability Data Guard, Sharding and Global Data Services (MOSC) 6 commentsAnswered

Hello Friends,

We are planning to Migrate a Production 3 Node RAC 12.1.0.2(Jan 2018 PSU) on Linux 64 bit to our Exadata Database Machine (April 2018 PSU) using Data Guard.

 

1. Build a Physical Standby Database on the Exadata Database Machine

2. Perform Switch over

3. Disable / Remove Data Guard

4. Decommission old primary Database/ Servers.

 

Question I have is whether we can build a Physical Standby Database and perform switchover when the Primary Database PSU is lower than that of the Physical Standby Database.

Is this thing supported?

Any documents / notes I can refer?

Thanks,

Su.

Howdy, Stranger!
