Recovery Catalog Views

This chapter contains descriptions of recovery catalog views. You can only access these views if you have created a recovery catalog. For a summary of the recovery catalog views, refer to "Summary of RMAN Recovery Catalog Views".


Note:

These views are not normalized, but are optimized for RMAN usage. Hence, most catalog views have redundant values that result from joining of several underlying tables.

The following table provides a functional summary of RMAN recovery catalog views.
