Hi all, This is first one for me. I need to restore d/base from last night's rman hot backup. I also need to apply redo logs till 13:00 today to bring it to the time before the "accident" happened. Do I restore backup files to disk from tape and then run the following: STARTUP NOMOUNT RUN { # set time to just before data was lost. SET UNTIL TIME 'Sep 29 2009 13:00:00'; RESTORE CONTROLFILE FROM AUTOBACKUP; ALTER DATABASE MOUNT; RESTORE DATABASE; RECOVER DATABASE; } ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS; Thanks, Regards, Eugene Pipko Seattle Pacific Industries office: 253.872.5243 cell: 206.304.7726 P Please consider the environment before printing this e-mail.
