MIGRATE_TAPE_BACKUP

This procedure makes pre-migration tape backups accessible to the Recovery Appliance through the specified SBT library. You must first import metadata about the tape backups into the Recovery Appliance catalog using the RMAN IMPORT CATALOG command.

This procedure performs the metadata adjustments required to access pre-existing tape backups, but does not physically move backups. The pre-existing backups must already be accessible by the specified SBT library.
