How to verify RMAN backups are good to recover,restore a database?

990636Mar 14 2013 — edited Mar 14 2013
When a database is backed up,how we know that the data backed up by rman is good for RECOVER.

I use catalog database to backup the databases.

RMAN>list backup;

rman>list backup summary;

I have set my RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 90 DAYS;

control_file_record_keep_time of 7 days.

What is the difference between Retention policy and control_file_record_time?

that means RMAN showing me all 90days backups right?

is there any list command which shows like 2 or 3 days backups which are backed up.I can know that info from SQL

http://gavinsoorma.com/2009/07/rman-script-to-check-backups/

just wondering is there any command from RMAN list commands which gives the last days backups.


RMAN>list recoverable backup;

is this above command shows the backups which are used for recover and restore the database?



I need list command to crosscheck the data am backed up from RMAN are good to recover the database.
