Hi,
Last week our AIX box crashed and we needed to start over with a clean
install. Luckily, we had week old backups of the system which included the
oracle database files. Is there anyway if I now reinstall oracle that I can
use my existing database files? We have no other source of the data we
need. What would be the procedure? Would I not have the install create a
database? How do I take my .dbf files that I have backed up and making them
'active'? THe oracle version we are using is 8.1.6.
