RE: What does _allow_read_only_corruption do?

Tom,

I have never used this parameter in the past, but I *believe* that this will allow you to open up your database in read only mode when you have got corruption in something like a system datafile or control files? Yyou can then take exports of the database to reload. Or something like that..

The gurus may have more info..

Yes,

I know it's a hidden parameter that should only be used at the advice of counsel and Oracle Support.

But has anyone used it?
