Scenario 3: Create the Source and Target Configurations

Using DGMGRL, connect to the source container database boston using the wallet created in Scenario 2: Prepare the Environment and create the source configuration Boston. It must contain the source container database boston with PDBs bos_sales, bos_acct, and bos_finance. The source PDB that will be protected using a DG PDB configuration is bos_sales.

Using DGMGRL, connect to the target container database newyork using the wallet created in Scenario 2: Prepare the Environment and create the target configuration NewYork. It must contain the target container database newyork, which will provide data protection to the PDB bos_sales in the source configuration Boston. The source PDB bos_sales will be protected by the target PDB nyc_sales created in Scenario 6: Configure Data Guard Protection for the Source PDB.

See Scenario 1: Creating a Configuration Scenario 1 of chapter 8 "Scenarios Using the DGMGRL Command-Line Interface": Creating a Configuration Tasks 1-5 for more information about creating a Data Guard configuration.

Note:

Do not perform the Task 6 steps of Chapter 8 Scenario 1 to create a CDB-level standby database and do not create CDB-level standby redo log files for either container database.
