Software enhancement request for Oracle 12c +
Idea
Flashback to be enabled per pluggable database, instead of per the whole instance.
Why?
Because I like flashback and use it a lot for patching/upgrades/production releases/security against user errors. Because it makes DBA's life easier.
Can it be done?
As flashback logs contain the whole block copy of the database, I'm sure somewhere in the block Oracle writes down the pluggable database name, simple because Oracle needs to know to which database that block belongs.
Action
Software enhancement request raised with Oracle.
