Database Software

Hi,

I have an Oracle Database 11.2.0.1 database and I'm trying some things regarding protection modes for education purposes.

I've configured a physical standby database with standby redo log files.

At primary side the redo transport service is configured asynchronous:
log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=lcro async valid_for=(online_logfiles, primary_role) db_unique_name=lcro'

And now I stopped the primary database and switched it to the MAXIMUM AVAILABLITY mode (in this mode redo transport service should be synchronous and affirm but as you see it isn't):

SQL> shutdown immediate;
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount;
Database mounted.
SQL> alter database set STANDBY DATABASE TO MAXIMIZE AVAILABLITY;
Database altered.
SQL> alter database open;
Database altered.

Database says that it is in MAXIMUM AVAILABLITY mode but can this be true because of the log_archive_dest_2 parameter? What will Oracle do now and why is there no warning or something like that?

Thank you.

Best regards
