Urgent -- need to restore table from full database backup

Hello,
Can somebody tell me the process for restoring just a table from a full database backup?
I did a full online database backup yesterday, and one of my tables got ruined today. I need to restore it as soon as possible, but I don't know how. When I tried flashback tables, it said that feature wasn't enabled. Should I restore the datafile or the tablespace?
Thanks much,
Nora

If you only want to recover the table and not the other objects in the tablespace, and assuming the table was damaged by a user statement (and not, say, block corruption), you would need to recover your backup to a different system, export the table that was damaged, and import the table into your real production database. If you can recover the entire tablespace to an earlier point in time, or if you can lose some committed changes to other database objects, you may have other options.

Restore a single table from full database backup

Hi,
I have a full database (10.2.0.1) backup with RMAN.
Suddenly a table got truncated. How to get back that table without restoring and recovering the full database (Point in time recovery) since if I restore the database to an earlier time then the other transactions will hamper.
Also creating a standby database and import export the table will solve my problem. But is there any other way to restore the lost table.
Thanks in advance.

No other way to restore the data if you don't want do point in time recovery. If you drop the table then you can restore it from the recyclebin but for the truncate operation it won't help. If you have enabled the flash back table for that particular table then you can restore the data for only that table.

[Forum FAQ] How do I restore the CDC enabled database backups (FULL + DIFF) while maintaining the CDC integrity

Question
Background: When restoring Full + DIFF backups of a Change Data Capture (CDC) enabled database to a different SQL server, the CDC integrity is not being maintained. We did RESTORE the databases with the KEEP_CDC option.
How do I successfully restore the CDC enabled database backups (FULL + DIFF) while maintaining the CDC integrity?
Answer
When restoring a CDC enabled database on a different machine that is running SQL Server, besides using use the KEEP_CDC option to retain all the CDC metadata, you also need to add Capture and Cleanup jobs.
In addition, as you want to restore FULL + DIFF backups of a CDC enabled database, you need to note that the KEEP_CDC and NoRecovery options are incompatible. Use the KEEP_CDC option only when you are completing the recovery. I made a test to display

How to restore one table from the previous backup in 9.2.0.8 version.

Hi,
How to restore one table from the previous backup in 9.2.0.8 version.
Thanks

Hi,
What is the table you want to restore?
Using export/import is supported with Oracle Apps database (for full database exp/imp, and certain schemas like custom ones). For the Apps schema, I believe it is not supported due to object dependencies and integrity constraints.

Full database backup and restore

I have a doubt on the syntax for a full database backup and restore. For a single schema, the syntax for backup & restore is :-
exp JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501/JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501 owner=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501 STATISTICS=none
log=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501_exp.log grants=y constraints=Y rows=y compress=N
file=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501
imp <userid/password> file=<export dump file location> fromuser=<export user name> touser=<import user name>
grants=y constraints=Y rows=y log=<import log file location>
I hope, my question is clear.
Please, help in solving the doubt.
regards

hi,
thanks, for your answer. I took a export of one schema of the database. But, when I tried to import the schema to the destination database, it showed
imported with errors with the existence of functions showing. The commands used by me for export and import are as follows:-
exp JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501/JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501 owner=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501 STATISTICS=none log=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501_exp.log grants=y constraints=Y rows=y compress=N file=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501
imp JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501/JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501 file=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501 fromuser=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501 touser=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501 grants=y constraints=Y rows=y log=JISPREPCORBILLINGPRD501_imp.log
Do, we need to drop the existing schema before importing or somethinig else. Please, help.

Help needed to insert data from different database

Hi ,
I have a requirement where i need to fetch data from different database through database link .Depending on user request , the dblink needs to change and data from respective table from mentioned datbase has to be fetched and populated .Could i use execute immediate for this, would dblink work within execute immediate .If not , could pls let me know any other approach .

What does "the dblink needs to change" mean?
Are you trying to dynamically create database links at run-time? Or to point a query at one of a set of pre-established database links at run-time?
Are you sure that you really need to get the data from the remote database in real time? Could you use materialized views/ Streams/ etc to move the data from the remote databases to the local database? That tends to be far more robust.

Need to restore iphone from icloud but my icloud and apple id for apps are different. How do I do this?

I had to erase my iphone 5 and do a full restore from my icloud back up. My icloud is under one apple id(email address) and my apps and itunes are under a different apple id (since I had itunes long before my iphone). How do I restore my apps? Thanks

I have always had two different ids as long as I have had my phone. Can i restore them from a itunes backup?

hi
what are the apps version local and remote database???
Snapshot too old errors occur because Oracle can 't reconstruct a consistent
image of a block for the purposes of a consistent read.
I feel at remote database, you are using UNDO, it will be rather easy to iincrease the undo retention time or increase the undo tablespace size.. if you are dealing with roll back segments, you may have rollback segments whose optimal values are too small...
increase roll back segments size and select again then

Replicate some tables from local database server to Remote database sever

how can i replicate some tables from local database server(Oracle 8.1.7 on windows 2000 server) to a remote database server(Oracle 8.1.7 on Sun Solaris)
whenever there is some insertion or updation on the table of base(main) database it should get updated to the remote database server
or
on time base for example: every 2 hours
please help me!!!!

It all depends on waht you are going to do with the data on the remote.
if tehre are no updates there, creating a simple materialized view on the remote to pull it's data from the local should suffice.
If there are updates on the remote, you will more than likely want to look into either Multi-master replication, or updatable materialized views.

Select query based on joining of tables from different database is taking too long

Hi Team,
Select query on table with millions of records is taking very long time. It took 50mins, the below query is joining on multiple table from two databases DB1.dbo.Table1 contains 100 million records and also Table3 and Table4 (of different database) might
contain close to 1million records.
Select T1.*
From DB1.dbo.Table1 T1
Join DB1.dbo.Table2 T2 on RTRIM(T1.Col3) = RTRIM(T2.Col3)
Join Table4 CA on RTRIM(T1.Col1) + T2.Col2 = CA.Col1
Join Table3 U on CA.Col2 = U.Col2 AND RTRIM(T2.Col2) = U.Col3
Where U.Col4 NOT IN ('A1', 'A2', 'A3', 'A4', 'A5', 'A6','A7','A8','A9')
And (T1.flg IS NULL OR T1.flg = 'N')
And LTRIM(RTRIM(T2.Col2)) NOT IN ('B1','B2')
How can i improve the performance of this query. Actual thing is update the data in Db1.dbo.table1 based on the conditions but if the select is taking close to 1hr then update will take hours together. Indexes already implemented on all the tables.
Thanks,
Eshwar.

How to import a table from another database using DB toolset.

Hello All
I would like to import a table from one database to another using DB toolbox.
I do not want to import all data to LV and then save them to another database. Instead I would prefer to use SQL syntax.
Does anobody know how to write SQL command to import whole table from one database to another?
I have found in some SQL manual that INSERT INTO should work, but JET4 returns an error that table (e.g. c:\mydatabase\table1) can not be found.
Thanks in advance

HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM?

I cant see any join conditions in your query posted. Whats the purpose of the query above. It will just bring you a cartesian product (cross join) of tables involved subjected to filters. Are you sure this is the correct query?
The error you're getting may be because you've not yet populated DimProduct or may be because of logic you used in popultaing DimProduct causing it to miss some records which is what query is referring to in above case.
