Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain Yes. Because the main purpose is to check the physical corruption. You can do it whether the database is open or not. However you can check corruption through other means. Fe., exp file=/dev/null, with rman, or a logical corruption too with analyze validate structure.
