5.60 RC_TEMPFILE

This view lists information about all temp files registered in the recovery catalog.

It corresponds to the V$TEMPFILE view. A temp file is shown as dropped if its tablespace is dropped.

Column Data Type Description

DB_KEY

NUMBER

The primary key for the target database. Use this column to join with almost any other catalog view.

DBINC_KEY

NUMBER

The primary key for the incarnation of the target database. Use this column to join with RC_DATABASE_INCARNATION.

DB_NAME

VARCHAR2(8)

The DB_NAME of the database incarnation to which this record belongs.

CON_ID

NUMBER

The ID of the current container:

  • 0: Rows containing data that pertain to the entire multitenant container database (CDB) or a traditional Oracle databases (non-CDBs)

  • 1: Rows containing data that pertains only to the root

  • n: Where n is the applicable container ID for the rows containing data

PDB_NAME

VARCHAR2(30)

The name of the pluggable database (PDB) in the recovery catalog.

PDB_KEY

NUMBER

The primary key for the PDB in the recovery catalog.

TS#

NUMBER

The tablespace ID in the target database. The TS# may exist multiple times in the same incarnation if the tablespace is dropped and re-created.

TABLESPACE_NAME

VARCHAR2(30)

The tablespace name. The name may exist multiple times in the same incarnation if the tablespace is dropped and re-created.

FILE#

NUMBER

The absolute file number of the temp file. The same temp file number may exist in the same incarnation of the temp file is dropped and re-created.

CREATION_CHANGE#

NUMBER

The SCN when the temp file is created.

CREATION_TIME

DATE

The time when the temp file is created.

DROP_CHANGE#

NUMBER

The SCN recorded when the temp file was dropped. If a new temp file with the same FILE# is discovered, then the DROP_CHANGE# is set to CREATION_CHANGE# for the temp file; otherwise, the value is set to RC_CHECKPOINT.CKP_SCN.

DROP_TIME

DATE

The time when the temp file was dropped. If a new temp file with the same FILE# is discovered, then the DROP_TIME is set to CREATION_TIME for the temp file; otherwise the value is RC_CHECKPOINT.CKP_TIME.

BYTES

NUMBER

The size of the temp file in bytes.

BLOCKS

NUMBER

Size of the file in blocks.

BLOCK_SIZE

NUMBER

The block size of the temp file in bytes.

NAME

VARCHAR2(1024)

The temp file name.

RFILE#

NUMBER

The relative file number of this temp file within the tablespace.

AUTOEXTEND

VARCHAR2(3)

ON if the temp file is autoextensible. Otherwise OFF.

MAXSIZE

NUMBER

Maximum file size in blocks to which the file can be extended. Valid only when AUTOEXTEND is ON. Always 0 when AUTOEXTEND is OFF.

NEXTSIZE

NUMBER

Amount of incremental size for file extensible in blocks. Valid only when AUTOEXTEND is ON. Always 0 when AUTOEXTEND is OFF.

BIGFILE

VARCHAR2(3)

YES if the tablespace is a bigfile tablespace; otherwise, NO.

SITE_KEY

NUMBER

Primary key of the Data Guard database associated with this file. Each database in a Data Guard environment has a unique SITE_KEY value. You can use SITE_KEY in a join with the RC_SITE view to obtain the DB_UNIQUE_NAME of the database.

TABLESPACE_CREATION_CHANGE#

NUMBER

SCN at which this tablespace was created.

TABLESPACE_CREATION_TIME

DATE

Timestamp at which this tablespace was created.

TABLESPACE_DROP_CHANGE#

NUMBER

SCN at which this tablespace was dropped.

TABLESPACE_DROP_TIME

DATE

Timestamp at which the tablespace was dropped.

DB_UNIQUE_NAME

VARCHAR2(512)

The DB_UNIQUE_NAME of the database incarnation to which this record belongs. All databases in a Data Guard environment share the same DBID but different DB_UNIQUE_NAME values. The value in this column is null when the database name is not known for a specific file. For example, rows for databases managed by versions of RMAN before Oracle Database 11g are null.
