NOTE: In the images and/or the document content below, the user information and data used represents fictitious

data from the Oracle sample schema(s) or Public Documentation delivered with an Oracle database product.

Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental and not intended in any manner.

 You have several user pluggable databases (PDB), but only some of them show up in a query of CDB_REGISTRY.  

The following sql was run from the root container database (CDB).  In this example, see that the user PDBs are all open in READ WRITE mode, but do not show up in a query of the CDB_REGISTRY.  Notice also that there are rows from CDB_REGISTRY for the CDB (con_id 1), <PDB1> (con_id 3), but no entries for PDB$SEED (con_id 2), <PDB2> (con_id 4), and <PDB3> (con_id 5).
