Os info: solaris 11
Oracle info: Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition Release 12.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
Message: Hi Guys,

I have been investigating the usage of active dataguard in our environment and I know for sure that we don't have an active dataguard running or configured.

Now, when I run the below SQL statement on our database, I get the below results:

select count(*) from DBA_FEATURE_USAGE_STATISTICS where name like '%Active Data Guard - Real-Time Query on Physical Standby%';

I get two rows (i.e. the row for 12.1.0.2.0 and 12.2.0.1.0) but the column currently_used is false and the last_sample_date is yesterday.

Now, is this something that I should worry about from the licensing perspective?

Please assist...

Thanks in advance...

Message: Hello Tso,

you mention that "COUNT(*)" gives rows, that CURRENTLY_USED is false, but what about DETECTED_USAGES, FIRST_USAGE_DATE and LAST_USAGE_DATE?

SELECT NAME, CURRENTLY_USED, DETECTED_USAGES, FIRST_USAGE_DATE, LAST_USAGE_DATE
FROM DBA_FEATURE_USAGE_STATISTICS
WHERE NAME LIKE '%Data Guard%'
;
NAME CURRE DETECTED_USAGES FIRST_USA LAST_USAG
-------------------------------------------------------- ----- --------------- --------- ---------
Active Data Guard - Real-Time Query on Physical Standby FALSE 0
Data Guard TRUE 391 30-SEP-16 29-AUG-21

is OK, but if you have >0 "detected_usages" for "active DG", then it might be that the feature was used "by accident"...

Best regards,

Bruno Vroman

The FIRST_USAGE_DATE and the LAST_USAGE_DATE columns are NULL.

We first installed 12.1.0.2.0 then upgraded to 12.2.0.1.0.

Much appreciated !!!

Thanks

Generally speaking if DETECTED_USAGES is 0 this means Oracle did not detected you use the feature.

McOptions will give you which features you use(d) and which options you have to buy.
