I want to thank all of you for answering to my message.
Now I understand that I need a database backup previously taken to use
DSPITR later on it.
Before writing the fist message I took a look at "Oracle8i Backup and
Recovery Guide". The last chapter "Performing Operating System Tablespace
Point-in-Time Recovery" describes rather sophisticated steps and
requirements for TSPITR (sophisticated for me, because I'm rather new to
physical backup technique in Oracle). And very little information on
DSPITR. The way I was thinking is as follows: if archived logs have all the
information about the changes to DB, so these changes could be rolled back
and forward. Now I see, the changes can be only rolled forward.
Best regards,
Sergey Adamenko
