How to turno off database flashback on a dataguard environment
I have an oracle 19CR25 enterprise edition database running on OS RH7 enterprise edition.
I am updating a 1.4T table - the tests have shown me I need to reduce the amount of data this update generates as archive logs and flashback files run into the 1T .
The production environment has a standby database. The production is running with flashback on , the standby has it off.
To do this update I am thinking of turning flashback off for the production database.
Is this as simple as "ALTER DATABASE FLASHBACK OFF;" or do I have to:
- shutdown the database
- mount the database
