Recovery Manager provides a way to rollback a database to a point-in-time stage with a read-
only or read-write virtual copy.
The rollback utility requires the data volumes be offline without being exported to any giving
host. Therefore it is very important to keep the original volume numbers from being reused by
other volumes. Recovery Manager uses them for creating LUNs and exporting them to the
original host with the same set of volume numbers.
