RMAN dynamic views

The following Oracle dynamic views can be used to obtain RMAN information stored in the control file:

·         V$ARCHIVED_LOG: show which archives have been created, backed up, and cleared in the database.

·         V$BACKUP_CORRUPTION: show which blocks have been found to be corrupt during a backup of a backup set.

·         V$BACKUP_DATAFILE: useful for creating equal-sized backup sets by determining the number of blocks in each datafile. It can also help you find the number of corrupt blocks in the datafile.

·         V$BACKUP_DEVICE: display information about supported backup devices. DISK is not returned because it is always available.

·         V$BACKUP_FILES: display information about all RMAN backups (image copies and backup sets) and archived logs. The view simulates the LIST BACKUP and LIST COPY commands.

·         V$BACKUP_PIECE: show backup pieces created for backup sets.

·         V$BACKUP_REDOLOG: show archived logs stored in backup sets.

·         V$BACKUP_SET: show backup sets that have been created.

·         V$BACKUP_SPFILE: display information about server parameter files in backup sets.

·         V$COPY_CORRUPTION: show which blocks have been found to be corrupt during an image copy.

·         V$DATABASE_BLOCK_CORRUPTION: list database blocks marked as corrupt during the most recent RMAN backup.

·         V$RMAN_CONFIGURATION: list information about RMAN persistent configuration settings.

·         V$PROXY_ARCHIVEDLOG, V$PROXY_DATAFILE: proxy settings for RMAN.

·         V$BACKUP_ASYNC_IO, V$BACKUP_SYNC_IO: backup performance statistics
