The first step in adding a standby database is to select the type of backup to use for the standby creation. You can either perform a live backup of the primary database or use an existing backup of the primary database. This scenario assumes that you are performing a live backup of the primary database.

The right side of this screenshot provides general information about the standby database creation process. At this time, you can click Cancel, or Next. If you Cancel, you terminate the current process and must begin again at the introductory page of the Add Standby Database wizard. This scenario assumes you are continuing to the next step.
