Hi Joel, you're correct that the standby does need to be licensed, however I believe Maureen may be speaking to "Active DataGuard," an additional-cost license above and beyond that of the database/DataGuard.

I'm by no means a licensing guru, but the way I understand it opening the standby read only requires this additional license.

Thanks,
Ryan
