Re: Database Recovery/copy

You can FTP the .dmp file or the production database and import it into developement. You have to drop the tables in development that are going to be imported. You can pre-create them and use ignore =Y or you can just import the tables as they are in production. You don't have to do anything to your controlfiles. This assumes that you will only be importing the schema(s) that contain the application data.
