Well said Joe.
Denham, as an experiment, just try asking a simpler question. :)
Seriously, the questions that I have seen go without answer
are out of the mainstream (for a DBA, which this list seems
to consist of) and go unanswered simply because no one here
has the answer.
I see that you asked about directly repairing a data block
marked corrupt. There were 2 replies, which may or may not
have been helpful. This is really a support question anyway.
Keep in mind that there are people on this list that doubtless
know how to do this particular task, but are likely bound either
by employment contracts(Oracle) or NDA's (with Oracle) that
prevent them from telling you how to do it. This is a rather
low level task you were asking about.
Others may simply ignore it as it is safer for them to do so
than hand out advice for using a sector editor, figuring that
you really should call support.
Your question on auditing has gone unanswered, but to be fair,
it hasn't even been 24 hours yet. It is a rather unusual question,
so it seems likely that if it remains unanswered, that no one here
has experienced that issue.
I'm sure there are enough ego's here such that any question
will be answered provided the reader has any idea what you're
talking about.
