RE: oracle not available ???

A Cold Backup is always a Full backup --- all datafiles (and, highly recommended, all control files
and redo log files).
Did you shutdown the database twice but only backup 6 files each time ? How many log switches
occurred between the first backup and the second ? If the transactions are still in the online redo logs,
you might try a recovery.

Hi list

I have a database recovery problem.

The scenario is like this

1. My database is not in archive mode.
2. I have taken a cold back up on two different times. 6 data files in the morning and 6 in the evening. In between the database was started and again Was shutdown before taking back up in the evening.

I want to recover the database completely but I don't mind losing the data of the period between the back ups.

Can any one have solution.

Thanks in advance

NAGARAJ
