Hi all,

I am new to this DBA stuff, I was trying to shutdown our oracle 9.2.0.6 DB with... 'shutdown immediate' command... it was hanging there for a long time so I stopped it with 'clt-c' and gave 'shutdown abort' and the DB stopped...

I then started with 'startup' and did the 'shutdown immediate' and startup again...

now I am not able to desc any of the tables... plz help!!!

these tables have huge data in it... if I can atleast the table str back I can load the data... will be pretty painful... but plz advice with any better solution...

hoping an immediate responce...

thanx

ozzy

you mean after restarting the database ..you are not able to see your tables .. ?? ? should not be the case .. See in which user the table is present and cross check with the user you have logged in ...

Quote:


For example : if your table name is SAMPLE .. and you dont know which user owns that table .. login as system user and then

SQL>select owner from dba_tables where table_name='SAMPLE';



depending upon the owner you have got ...you can then either do a " desc owner.table " or "select count(*) from owner.table " ...

If you are recieving any errors ..then post the errors here ..
