If an archivelog has been physically removed from a system, but there's metadata in the rman catalog for that log, can it be restored from the catalog? I thought the catalog contained only the metadata, but a dba just told me he could restore from the catalog, even though the file was no longer available on the system.

This is Oracle version 11.2.

Thanks!
