Disable broker configguration

Time for action – disabling broker configuration
Broker management of the primary database and all of its standby databases can be disabled using the DISABLE CONFIGURATION command. After disabling the configuration, it won't be possible to fetch any information from the Data Guard broker by using DGMGRL.

Before disabling the configuration, let's check the status of the broker configuration, as follows:
DGMGRL> show configuration;
Configuration - PACKT
  Protection Mode: MaxPerformance
  Databases:
    turkey_un - Primary database
    INDIA_UN  - Physical standby database
Fast-Start Failover: DISABLED
Configuration Status:
SUCCESS
The current status of the configuration is SUCCESS

.

Disable the configuration as follows:
DGMGRL> disable configuration;
Disabled.
Check the current configuration status as follows:


DGMGRL> show configuration;
Configuration - PACKT
  Protection Mode: MaxPerformance
  Databases:
    turkey_un - Primary database
    INDIA_UN  - Physical standby database
Fast-Start Failover: DISABLED
Configuration Status:
DISABLED



You can disable the configuration either from the primary or the standby database. On disabling the broker, databases will not be monitored by the broker. This command won't remove the broker configuration from the configuration file. You're still able to perform changes on the database properties. However, the changes will only be applicable once you enable the configuration again.
