V$BACKUP_DATAFILE displays information about control files and datafiles in backup sets from the control file.
| Column | Datatype | Description |
|---|---|---|
RECID |
NUMBER |
Backup datafile record ID |
STAMP |
NUMBER |
Backup datafile record stamp |
SET_STAMP |
NUMBER |
Backup set stamp |
SET_COUNT |
NUMBER |
Backup set count |
FILE# |
NUMBER |
Datafile number; set to 0 for control file |
CREATION_CHANGE# |
NUMBER |
Creation system change number (SCN) of the datafile |
CREATION_TIME |
DATE |
Creation timestamp of the datafile |
RESETLOGS_CHANGE# |
NUMBER |
Resetlogs system change number (SCN) of the datafile when it was backed up |
RESETLOGS_TIME |
DATE |
Resetlogs timestamp of the datafile when it was backed up |
INCREMENTAL_LEVEL |
NUMBER |
Normal full backups have a NULL value, level 0 incremental backups have a value of 0, and level 1 incremental backups have a value of 1 |
INCREMENTAL_CHANGE# |
NUMBER |
All blocks changed after the incremental change number is included in this backup; set to 0 for a full backup |
CHECKPOINT_CHANGE# |
NUMBER |
All changes up to the checkpoint change number are included in this backup |
CHECKPOINT_TIME |
DATE |
Timestamp of the checkpoint |
ABSOLUTE_FUZZY_CHANGE# |
NUMBER |
Highest change number in this backup |
MARKED_CORRUPT |
NUMBER |
Number of blocks marked corrupt |
MEDIA_CORRUPT |
NUMBER |
Number of blocks media corrupt |
LOGICALLY_CORRUPT |
NUMBER |
Number of blocks logically corrupt |
DATAFILE_BLOCKS |
NUMBER |
Size of the datafile in blocks at backup time. This value is also the number of blocks taken by the datafile restarted from this backup. |
BLOCKS |
NUMBER |
Size of the backup datafile (in blocks). Unused blocks are not copied to the backup. |
BLOCK_SIZE |
NUMBER |
Block size |
OLDEST_OFFLINE_RANGE |
NUMBER |
RECID of the oldest offline range record in this backup control file. 0 for datafile backups. |
COMPLETION_TIME |
DATE |
Time completed |
CONTROLFILE_TYPE |
VARCHAR2(1) |
B - Normal copies
|
USED_CHANGE_TRACKING |
VARCHAR2(3) |
Indicates whether change tracking data was used to accelerate this incremental backup (YES) or whether change tracking data was not used (NO) |
BLOCKS_READ |
NUMBER |
Number of blocks that were scanned while taking this backup. If this was an incremental backup, and change tracking was used to optimize the backup, then the value of this column will be smaller than DATAFILE_BLOCKS. Otherwise, the value of this column will be the same as DATAFILE_BLOCKS. Even when change tracking data is used, the value of this column may be larger than BLOCKS, because the data read by change tracking is further refined during the process of creating an incremental backup. |
USED_OPTIMIZATION |
VARCHAR2(3) |
Indicates whether backup optimization was applied (YES) or not (NO) |
FOREIGN_DBID |
NUMBER |
Foreign DBID of the database from which this datafile was transported. The value is 0 if the file backed up is not a foreign database file. |
PLUGGED_READONLY |
VARCHAR2(3) |
YES if this is a backup of a transported read-only foreign file; otherwise NO. |
PLUGIN_CHANGE# |
NUMBER |
SCN at which the foreign datafile was transported into the database. The value is 0 if this file is not a foreign database file. |
PLUGIN_RESETLOGS_CHANGE# |
NUMBER |
The SCN of the RESETLOGS operation for the incarnation into which this foreign file was transported. The value is 0 if this file is not a foreign database file. |
PLUGIN_RESETLOGS_TIME |
DATE |
The time of the RESETLOGS operation for the incarnation into which this foreign file was transported. The value is 0 if this file is not a foreign database file. |
SECTION_SIZE |
NUMBER |
Specifies the number of blocks in each section of a multisection backup. Value is 0 for whole file backups. |
UNDO_OPTIMIZED |
VARCHAR2(3) |
Indicates whether undo blocks were ignored when creating the backup datafile (YES) or not (NO) |
BLOCKS_SKIPPED_IN_CELL |
NUMBER |
Number of blocks that were not backed up because they were skipped by the Exadata cell
