The Database Smart Flash Cache is not shared across RAC nodes; it is private to each RAC instance. For that reason, each RAC instance must define its own local flash cache file path. When the flash cache is managed by ASM, a separate diskgroup is needed for the flash cache of each instance.
Logged operations are replicated. These include, but are not limited to: DDL DML Create/alter table space Create/alter storage group Create/alter buffer pool XML data. Logged LOBs Not logged operations are not replicated. These include, but are not limited to: Database configuration parameters (this allows primary and standby databases to be configured differently). "Not logged initially" tables Not logged LOBs UDF (User Defined Function) libraries. UDF DDL is replicated. But the libraries used by UDF (such as C or Java libraries) are not replicated, because they are not stored in the database. Users must manually copy the libraries to the standby. Note: You can use database configuration parameter BLOCKNONLOGGED to block not logged operations on the primary.
