I don't like "self-test" drills because you know what the cause of the problem is. Get a friend with some oracle knowledge - ask them to (expletive) your database. They can do anything from simply deleting a file to adding random strings of hex into your control files.

Then its your job to work out whats wrong and how to get it back
