Hello,
I would like to know whether there is a view in oracle, or a way we can get archived log sequence. I am practicing restoring archive redo logs to multiple locations using rman, but some of them are missing due to some "recover database delete archivelog" operation I performed earlier. So I would like to know what is the oldest available archived files sequence.
Thanks in advance.

Ah! believe me Michel, that's what I always do, but I do admit that I didn't try a search on this one.
Though the solution I may get by myself helps, there can be others, much more easier to apply. Say for example, the other day I was looking for a way to get the current scn. What I got then was, a simple select on the v$database to extract the column "current_scn". Lately I discovered by chance that we can also do a select dbms_flashback.get_system_change_number from dual to get the exact same result, and for me that way is the simplest.
No doubt that getting solutions by oneself teaches one alot and helps one improve.I happen to that very often.
Anyway, sorry if sometimes we post silly questions, or give you the feeling that we do not search first before coming here.
Thanks.
