I don't have such configuration (which is why I was asking basic
questions), but it strikes me as a gentle way to migrate platforms.
...or an ungentle way, in the event the mechanism is truly being used
for H/A or D/R, instead of migration... :-)

As Carel-Jan already said, I am wondering too why would
one use "heterogeneous DG" systems on different oracle platforms

have such configuration, I would like to hear the reasons for this.

Thank you for the response.
I'm aware that DG can generically be
configured with different storage. Specifically, I was asking about
the "heterogeneous DG" capability in 11g, mentioned earlier in this
email thread. In order to deal with cross-platform issues such as
"endian-ness", I am asking if there are any special prerequisites such
as ASM required?

Tim,
you can DG between ASM and non-ASM systems, as you can between RAC ans
SI dbs.

all nodes? I would expect so, but just

Williams,
Heterogeneous Data Guard
Configuration is
supported starting with 11g which allows a mix of Linux and Windows
primary and standby databases in the same Data Guard configuration.
