Database Error Messages

ORA-16827

Flashback Database is disabled.

Cause

The broker has detected that the Flashback Database feature is disabled. With Flashback Database disabled, the broker cannot reinstate a database that requires reinstatement. The Flashback Database may have been disabled manually with the ALTER DATABASE FLASHBACK DATABASE OFF command or automatically by the database in the event of an error.


Action

Check the database alert log to determine whether the Flashback Database has been disabled due to errors and then correct the problem. If Flashback Database was manually disabled, then re-enable Flashback Database with the ALTER DATABASE FLASHBACK DATABASE ON command. If, after enabling Flashback Database, the database still cannot be reinstated, then the database must be re-created from a copy of the primary database.
