I believe the flashback features would be capable with undo management and amount of undo-retained (undo_retention). Is this correct ?

Q. How far back can we do a flashback a database ? Can we determin by any view (or any other method) ?

Q. Also if we run a 'flasback database..' is there any way to know howmuchwork done and howmuchwork pending ?

It depends on which flashback feature you want to use, there are many some based undo some not.

Still the date you activate the feature.

Eg.

-- Flashback 5 minutes.
CONN sys/password AS SYSDBA
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE
STARTUP MOUNT EXCLUSIVE
FLASHBACK DATABASE TO TIMESTAMP SYSDATE-(1/24/12);
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;



Question : Is there any view or log from where I can check how-much of flashback-recovery is done (or is pending)
OR How much time it will take for the recovery to finish ?

Hint : Similar to view V$session_longops

You can't open a second session. Does this answer your question?
