Data Guard - Converting physical standby db to logical standby db

in High Availability Data Guard, Sharding and Global Data Services (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered ✓

Oracle Database Enterprise Edition version 19.3.

Data Guard with one PRIMARY DB, one PHYSICAL STANDBY DB, and currently two LOGICAL STANDBY DBs.

I'm converting a new physical standby db into a logical (the 3rd) and I am about to execute:

SQL>ALTER DATABASE RECOVER TO LOGICAL STANDBY <DB_NAME>;

My question is this.

Are there any benefits to using the "KEEP IDENTITY" clause other than what I read in the Oracle documentation?

In regards to "KEEP IDENTITY" the documentation states "can only participate in one switchover operation, and thus should only be created in the context of a rolling upgrade with a physical standby database."
