For creating the recovery catalog database we need to create the new database or we can use the existing database .. But the safe parctice is to create the new database which is dedicated for the CATALOG ..
The benefit of using the
recover catalog is all the backup information of the database is stored
in recover catalog database tables and we can query the status of the
backup and the details of the backup from the recovery catalog database
Step 1
Create the Separate database which is going to host the Rman catalog database
Step 2
Create the Separate table space which will hold all the catalog schema tables in it
SQL> CREATE TABLESPACE <tables pace_name>
2 DATAFILE '<datafile_name>' size 10240M
3 Autoextend on;
Tablespace created.
2 DATAFILE '<datafile_name>' size 10240M
3 Autoextend on;
Tablespace created.
Step3
Create the new user which will the Owner of the Rman catalog
Create user <username> identified by <password>
Default tablespace <tablespace_name>
Temporary tablespace <temporary tablespace name>
Quota <percentage of allocated quota> on <table space>
Step 4
Grant the recovery catalog owner role to the rcat user
Step5
Fom the O/S Prompt connect to the rman
Step 6
Connect to the recover catalog by using the new user name which we have created
Step 7
Connect to the recover catalog and register the database
