1. Do a tablespace point in time recovery using all the archives starting from the backup till the last continuous one that you have.


2. Use logminer to mine the relevant data from the archives after the gap. Pray that there aren't too many data consistency issues.

Hi list,

I know it's unsecure, unsupported and ugly. But given this situation:

I need a recovery of a tablespace, all archivelogs are there, bu I miss
one from last night. I want to do a "complete" recovery.

The log that's missing is out of a low activity period, and I am ready
to acceppt slight data corruption, and I will set up the DB as a new
afterwards, but I need the data from this morning.

What can one desperate DBA do?

To make it clear: I don't have this situation at the moment, but someday
this may change, and I would prefer to test this stress situation in
peacetime (now).

Any hints, advice, procedures?

Thanks a lot
Martin Klier
