Recovery Appliance Catalog
Updates to the recovery catalog reflect the results of Recovery Appliance indexing and space management collection. These updates do not occur in the control files of the protected databases. For this reason, protected databases that store backups in the Recovery Appliance must use the Recovery Appliance catalog.
Note:
Protected databases may use the recovery catalog in the Recovery Appliance without also using the Recovery Appliance as their backup repository.
RMAN connects to the Recovery Appliance catalog using the same Recovery Appliance account employed for backup and recovery operations. Each Recovery Appliance user account is also a virtual private catalog account. The DBMS_RA.GRANT_DB_ACCESS
procedure grants Recovery Appliance privileges to a database user account for a specified protected database.
