The browse operation provides you with the ability to Browse the Latest Data or Browse to Point-in-Time. The result of a browse operation is a list of objects (dbspaces) that existed within the specified time range.
The Browse the Latest Data option is selected by default. This option returns a list of objects that existed at any time and have a backup at the time the command is issued. You can browse to a point-in-time by specifying the date and time in the Browse To Point-in-Time box.
The list returned in the Browse window includes all objects that were backed up before the specified date and time.
| A dbspace must have been backed up during the specified browse time span for it to be listed in a browse. If a dbspace was created and deleted, and if no backup was performed, it will not show up in the browse window. |
