Physical standby database open with startup
Hello Experts,
we have oracle 12.1.0.2 EE on Linux (Physical standby database).. I want to know if by accident we open physical standby database with startup mode will it cause to use extra license ?
e.g.
startup standby database without applying any recovery.
I have see following blog which is saying "yes it will"
but many other saying until you have started managed recovery there is no extra license. so this is very confusing.
Regards
Sunil
