Oracle Database Administration II — Question 96

RMAN has just been connected to a target database and the recovery catalog database.
In which two cases would an automatic full resynchronization occur between this target database's control file and the RMAN recovery catalog? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. when control file metadata for archive log backups or image copies has been overwritten in the target database's control file due to being older than CONTROL_FILE_RECORD_KEEP_TIME
• B. when control file metadata for data file backups or image copies has been overwritten in the target database's control file due to being older than CONTROL_FILE_RECORD_KEEP_TIME
• C. when a new tablespace is added to a registered target database
• D. when a backup of the current control file is created
• E. when the target is first registered

Correct answer: C, E

Explanation

The correct answers are C and E. A resynchronization occurs when a new tablespace is added (C) or when the target database is initially registered (E) since these events necessitate updates to the recovery catalog. The other options relate to conditions that do not trigger an automatic resynchronization.
