Alex, 8i or 9i? If 8i, you will need to manually recover your control file from your RMAN backup sets since you are not using a recovery catalog. With 9i, it's much easier, as long as you have enabled automated control file backups.
RF -----Original Message----- To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: 2/10/2003 9:13 AM Hello Folks, I am just working with recovery scenarios and have question about rman. Consider following situation: 1. Use recovery manager without catalog only control file. 2. Have level 0 database backup + level 1 backup. If we lost all datafiles except datafiles from SYSTEM it is not a problem to recover database. Also if RMAN uses catalog it works good. But in scenario if we lost all datafiles (including all files from SYSTEN tablespace) how to recover database? Thank you for your help. -- Best regards, Alex mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
