Oracle Database 12c: Advanced Administration — Question 70

Identify two scenarios in which the RMAN crosscheck command can be used.

Answer options

• A. when checking for backups that are not required as per the retention policy
• B. when updating the RMAN repository if any of the archived redo log files have been deleted without using RMAN to do the deletes
• C. when updating outdated information about backups that disappeared from disk or media or became corrupted and inaccessible
• D. when synchronizing backups, which were not performed by using RMAN, with the RMAN repository
• E. when listing backups that are required for recovery operations

Correct answer: C, E

Explanation

The correct answers are C and E. Option C is accurate because the RMAN crosscheck command is used to update information about backups that are no longer available or have been corrupted. Option E is also correct, as it allows listing backups that are crucial for recovery operations. Options A, B, and D do not directly relate to the primary functions of the RMAN crosscheck command.
