Hi All - from previous community discussions, there is a bug in 11.2.0.4 which prevents remote connections as SYS if the SYS account has been locked - this also prevents DG Broker from working correctly, and led to our advice not to lock SYS for DG 11.2.0.4 systems.
Oracle have issued a one-off patch for this bug (17732353) long back.
This means that if you have any projects currently attempting risk acceptances/dispensations for not locking this sys, we can apply this patch and get sys locked without any affect to DG broker.
-Thanks
