I’m pleased to announce the recent certification of Oracle Active Data Guard 11.2.0.4 and 12.1.0.1 with Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.3. Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.3 certification with Oracle Active Data Guard 11.2.0.4 and 12.1.0.1 provides you the ability to offload some production reporting. We’ve certified the use of Oracle Discoverer and some Concurrent Manager reporting to run against the Oracle Active Data Guard database instance.
Detailed steps for setting up Active Data Guard 11.2.0.4 or 12.1.0.1 with Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.3 are provided in the following My Oracle Support Note:
- Using Active Data Guard and Discoverer Reporting with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1 and an Oracle 11g or 12c Database as a Physical Standby (Note 1070491.1)
In addition to Discoverer and Concurrent Manager, you may have other reporting tools that you would like to use with the Oracle Active Data Guard database instance. In general, you should be able to use the reporting tool if it does not require write access to the Active Data Guard instance.
