Just to clarify, in the previous post I didn't state clearly that the intention is not flashback the database and let it that way, but rather: 1) perform full backup of database 2) flashback to the desired scn/time 3) export the desired data 4) recover (or if archived redo logs aren't available anymore restore/recover) to the point in time the database was in 1) 5) import data obtained in 3) Regards
