Configuring and Managing the Logical Standby Environment

The DBMS_LOGSTDBY package provides procedures to help you manage the logical standby environment. The procedures in the DBMS_LOGSTDBY package help you to accomplish the following main objectives:

• Allow controlled access to tables in the standby database that may require maintenance
• Provide a way to skip applying archived redo logs to selected tables or entire schemas in the standby database, and describe how exceptions should be handled
• Manage initialization parameters used by log apply services
• Ensure supplemental logging is enabled properly and build the LogMiner dictionary
