Oracle's redolog format is different between these versions. You can
get an 8.1.5 instance to recover 8.0.4 logs by setting the COMPATIBLE
initialization parameter to 8.0.4, but use of the system as a standby
may not be supported. I also can't think of why you would want to do
it. It doesn't provode a faster rolling upgrade or anything like that.
What's the idea?
