Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Recovery without backup.
this is for those scenerios where u have old control file backup which might not include entry of newer datafiles that u might have added (and later on lost due to media failure) .. so like said in the thread below .. u create a new entry in the control file by using the "create datafile .." statement and then recover the datafile using normal methods. For this to succeed, you must have archives to rollforward alll the information that the new file might have had before u lost it ..
