Media recovery occurs when one or more datafiles or the controlfiles are restored from a previous backup or when using Data Guard Redo Apply in managed recovery. The goal of media recovery is to recover the datafiles and the rest of the database to a consistent point in time or to apply all primary database transactions that have occurred when a physical standby database is used to protect the primary site. This paper provides best practice recommendations for configuring media recovery in Oracle Database 10g - both in the case of a regular backup and Data Guard Redo Apply, such that the Service Level Agreement (SLA) associated with the recovery time can be achieved.
