RE: Restore without redolog files

Hi Shahid  

Of course you can do standard incomplete recovery 'until cancel', but ...  

I know there is a hidden parameter which allows you to open database without current redo logs. I can't remember the exact name at the moment (I'm sure, other guys will help). Please, note! I didn't do it before, but I believe you can open DB and recreate your redo logs. You have to do whole backup before !  

Please, correct me if I'm wrong. Any comments??
