Hi.
One of our hard drives gave up on us two days ago. I can retrieve the information from a previous tape. The hard drive contained one or more data tablespace data files. Can I recover the system by copying back all the datafiles with the same time stamp. If not, can I use EXPORT to bring back the whole database if the datafiles are not all there? Secondly, regarding index tablespaces. Can I drop the tablespace and recreate it with one datafile and could I do that with the data tablespace?

Many thanks !!!
