hope someone can help. I'm new to DBA stuff, and I've hit a problem. One of my hard drives failed and needed replacing. The disk that failed contains my rollback info and I've discovered to my horror that NTbackup failed to backup anything from that drive (I assume it's because the database was never shutdown). None of the other disks were affected so all other datafiles are OK

As a result of this Oracle won't start, I'm assuming that this is because of the missing files. Is there any way for me to start Oracle without the rollback files and recreate them? Or is there another solution.

Thanks for your help
