I would say not doable as such but what I would do would be extract the
whole database onto a test server...then perform the transportable
tablespace
magic.
The Transportable tablespace handles the dictionary information. Now if
someone
comes back and says its possible and it is.. I will fall off my chair and
give
you 5 bucks.

OK, after reading many of the posts on RMAN (Robert Freeman's book is now on the shopping list), I took the plunge and spent all day yesterday hacking away with it. Fun, fun, fun (well, as fun as backups could be).
Couple of questions - tablespace backups. If I have a tablespace backup, how portable is this (I realise this is a different kettle of fish to transportable tablespaces, just exploring the possibilities). Could I restore this to a different database? What about restoring it to the same database with missing dependencies (e.g. FK relationships to tables that have since been dropped)?
Just tinkering.
Ciao
