What are the on-going RMAN backup jobs ?

Peter77Sep 29 2021 — edited Sep 29 2021

Database version: 12.1

I want to know if there are any RMAN backup jobs currently running. 
And if there are any RMAN jobs running, I want to know if it is an L0, L1 or Archive log backup.

Which view can I use for that ?

I ran the following query which uses v$rman_status view.
But, the END_TIME always shows the current time !
Plus, v$rman_status does not provide info on whether the backup which is currently being run is L0, L1 or Archive log
The only useful information I got from the below query is that there is an RMAN job which started running at 29-SEP-2021 20:40:13 , nothing much

SQL> select distinct status from V$RMAN_BACKUP_JOB_DETAILS;
