corrupt datafile 2004-06-12 - By Michael Thomas
Hi Terry,
I 've read all the other list reponses. Suggestion?
Look for partial exports to help rebuild portions of
the lost tablespace(s)? What a mess.
You could also suggest they immediately attempt to
prevent similar/further hardware failures at the site,
unless its proven to be a singular disk system
failure. You might help with risk analysis of their
other (undamaged) databases and files, or help get
some answers from their SA/DBA/etc (new or old).
Preventing further issues can save the day after a
single data loss.
They should be willing to listen based on (1) how much
they value their data, or (2) how much the IT
department value their jobs.
Good luck, I hope it works out for you.
Regards,
Mike Thomas
PS: Ask the IT director if he/she has read what 's in
envelope three. Just kidding. ;-)
(You know the answer: "Make three envelopes ")
