RE: Tablespace Restore

You could restore what you need on another machine. Roll forward to the point in time you want, export the table. Drop it in the original database and import this export.

I've done that before on 7.3.4.

Subject: Tablespace Restore

Can someone do a sanity check please. Oracle 7.3.3 on NT 4.0 (SP5)

If a user has dropped an important table which MUST be restored the only way this can be done (without use of an up to date export) is to

1. Restore the WHOLE database from the last backup with all archived redo logs
2. Roll the database forward to a point in time just before the user fouled up
3. Open the database with RESETLOGS

Am I correct in thinking there is no way to restore just the affected tablespace without touching the rest of the database.

Thanks
STEVE
