Re: More Metalink Venting - Cannot catch error 22

The other nite I truncated every table in one of my production databases. I called Support and when the analyst asked my if she could ask me to open the TAR on Metalink I said 'NO, I can't . This is an emergency and it's production.' She answered my question about the recovery, that tables were back in less than an hour, and I apologized, on Metalink for my behavior.

Sometimes you just have to take a stand!
