Oh, but I don't think Oracle missed that. If I interpret http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/sig.pdf , page 21 ("Remote Mirroring") correctly, you would have to fully license the installation at the second data center, by the same metric as the primary.

(There's enough "if"'s in there to make me read the same (long) sentences 4-5 times over, and still not be 100% sure what it says, so I may be mistaken.)
