The
validate
command always skips all the data blocks that were never used, in each of the data files it validates.
The larger the value of the
section size
clause you set, the faster the validation process completes. You can use the
validate
command with the following options, among others:
•
validate recovery area
•
validate recovery files
•
validate spfile
•
validate tablespace <tablespace_name>
•
validate controlfilecopy <filename>
•
validate backupset <primary_key>
