The scenario is , the rman backup is cofigured with recovery catalog db and, we lost all control files and rman catalog repository database as well. Unfortunately, we don't have backups of catalog. First to restore/recover the control file, we need recovery catalog database, since we lost the meta data information, does it still possible to use the backup (which doesn't have the metadata) to recover the target database.
