Hope everyone had a great Halloween, but I had to recover a large 
multi-terabyte database.
While experienced with recoveries, we rarely do many anymore.  Fortunately this 
DB was running 11.2.0.3 and I am also familiar with the rman
  LIST FAILURE;
  LIST FAILURE $ID DETAIL;
  ADVISE FAILURE;
Etc. commands
Unfortunately I had no experience with this database.
I found I had to recover about 20 of 600 equal sized datafiles.
There was no standby or flash recovery area.  However, the level zero, one 
backups and archives were all on disk.

Just wondering if there was some quick ROT of when it would be faster to 
restore the whole database versus some number of datafiles.

I restored the 20, recovered them and was trying to verify the times with the 
query
  SELECT REPAIR_ID
        ,ADVISE_ID
        ,SUMMARY
        ,RANK
        ,TIME_DETECTED
        ,EXECUTED
        ,DETAILED_DESCRIPTION
        ,ESTIMATED_REPAIR_TIME
        ,ACTUAL_REPAIR_TIME
    FROM V$IR_REPAIR
  ;
But the times here never showed anything but zeros.
Anywhere I missed?


And researching I came across this parameter to speed up the backup read rate 
and was wondering if many people found success with it?

_backup_ksfq_bufcnt

  TIA
  Larry
