Usage Notes In addition to displaying the Storage Checkpoints created by SG

Oracle RAC, dbed_ckptdisplay also displays other Storage

Checkpoints (for example, Storage Checkpoints created by the

Capacity Planning Utility and NetBackup).

The Status field identifies if the Storage Checkpoint is partial (P),

complete (C), invalid (I), mounted (M), read-only (R), writable (W), or

of type online (ON), offline (OF), instant (IN), or unknown (UN).

Database FlashSnap commands are integrated with Storage

Checkpoint functionality. It is possible to display and mount Storage

Checkpoints carried over with snapshot volumes to a secondary

host. However limitations apply. See the dbed_ckptdisplay(1M)

manual page for more information.
