Hi Fuad, the usage of catalog is fine as long as recovery catalog is 'there' and available. In case that catalog is complitly lost (can not be recovered) the current control file is missing information about backups.
Have you considered replicating the catalog to the standby server? Once again the claim that 'RMAN can do every operation with just a controlfile that can be done with a catalog' is not quite true. -- Jared Still Certifiable Oracle DBA and Part Time Perl Evangelist
