Title: DB link to standby
On standby database server, you can connect to / as sysdba and query
fixed tables/views. Is it possible to create a database link which connects

I find it preferable to use MINUS wherever possible. Oracle optimizer
is trained to spot set operations and they usually generate sort/merge

Wouldn't this allow viewing DBA_USERS?
I haven't tried this myself, but it seems that I could set up another oracle

I think you are probably ok with this. But the best way to do this is to
create an Oracle account, grant what he asks, and start OEM using that
account. Try and change things and see what happens. Then you will know
for sure what the impact is.
Good Luck!
