This morning I got a CD full of data files from a remote client database
server that went belly up. This production database (8.1.5 on NT) was put
together by a group of developers with no backups setup. They sent the CD
to me in hopes that I could recover the database. I laid the files down on
my NT laptop and got the database up. I went to execute an export and got
ORA-01578.
I executed DBV against a few of the data files. The SYSTEM tablespace has
18 corrupt blocks and USERS has over 80 corrupt blocks. Just about every
query against the dictionary is returning ORA-01578. For example, I get
ORA-01578 when I try to figure out the object name for a corrupt block.
So now I'm trying to figure out what my options are. I'm scanning books and
Metalink, but I'm not finding much. Am I missing something? Help?
Many TIA.
Chris
