While performing a regular check on your recovery catalog you realized that the catalog database
is running out of space and you do not have options to increase the space. However, you have
another database where more space is available and you want to move your existing recovery
catalog to this database.
The options that can be considered while moving the recovery catalog are as follows:
1. Using one of the Oracle expdp utilities to export the catalog data
2. Creating a recovery catalog user and granting the necessary privileges in the other database
3. Creating the recovery catalog using the CREATE CATALOG command
4. Using the corresponding impdp utility to import the catalog data into the other database
5. Registering the target database in the new catalog database using the REGISTER DATABASE
command Identify the option with the correct sequence for moving the recovery catalog.

q=how%20to%20move% 20recovery%20catalog%3F&f=false As you can with any database, you
can use the Oracle Data Pump export and import utilities expdp and impdp to create logical
backups of the recovery catalog. You can use this logical backup to move the recovery catalog to
another database. Follow these general steps to move a recovery catalog to another database:
1. Use an export utility to copy the recovery catalog schema to an export dump file.2. Create the recovery catalog owner on the target catalog database with the appropriate
permissions; see Create the Recovery Catalog Owner earlier in this chapter.
3. Use the corresponding import utility to copy the recovery catalog schema to the target catalog
database.
The next time you launch RMAN, you connect to the same target database but a different recovery
catalog database. However, even though the recovery catalog database name is different, the
target database’s metadata is identical to the metadata in the previous recovery catalog.
You can also use transportable tablespaces to move a recovery catalog schema from one
database to another.
You do not need to run an RMAN CREATE CATALOG command in this scenario; the tables,
columns, and views are already in place from the source database.
