V$DELETED_OBJECT

V$DELETED_OBJECT displays information about deleted archived logs, datafile copies and backup pieces from the control file. The only purpose of this view is to optimize the recovery catalog resync operation. When an archived log, datafile copy, or backup piece is deleted, the corresponding record is marked deleted.
