Oracle 10g, HPUX, Physical DataGuard, RMAN backups of Primary and Standby.

What would be the best way to test our DataGuarded copy if we want to start it up and applying changes to it? We don't want those changes to come back to the primary.

Can we start it up as a regular database but then when we are done use our RMAN backup of it to restore it to the point were it was still a standby database? Will the primary database have any problems with this?

Anyone done anything like this before?

Thanks,
Tom
