SQL> * V$RMAN_OUTPUT - This is an in-memory view of the messages reported by RMAN holding a maximum of 32767 rows. Since this information is not recorded in the controlfile it is lost on instance restart.
* V$RMAN_STATUS - This view displays progress and status information for in-progress and complete RMAN jobs. The information for the in-progress jobs is memory only, while the complete job information comes from the controlfile.
* V$BACKUP_FILES - This view display information about RMAN image copies, backupsets and archived logs, similar to the information listed by the RMAN commands LIST BACKUP and LIST COPY. This view relies on the DBMS_RCVMAN.SETDATABASE procedure being run to set the database.
