Hey all,
I'd like to do some block media recovery testing in RMAN. It seems that
the Linux/Unix "dd" command would be an obvious choice to corrupt an
Oracle datafile block, but has anyone documented a controlled test like
this? Try to not reinvent the wheel, if possible.
I'm thinking of targeting specific objects in the database to corrupt.
It doesn't seem difficult to get a relative block and "dd" an empty
block in its place on a test instance, but if someone's already beaten
this path...
TIA!
Rich
