To retrieve the dropped tables [message #558319]

One of the developer dropped 18 tables by mistake on USER@db schema. Developer asked whether I can restore those tables, but unfortunately they are not in the recycle bin. Developer is re-creating the table now though. But I am just curious whether we need to change these parameters (db_recycle_cache_size) in order support any similar requests in the future.

NAME TYPE VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
db_recycle_cache_size big integer 0
recyclebin string on

===================

I don't know the answer to your question.

However, by mistake, 18 tables? One table is dropped by mistake (Awww, shit!), but 18?!? That was diarrhea.

Don't let sloppy developers close to your database. I hope it wasn't production system!

Anyway, I'd rather not maunder as - obviously - I don't have anything smart to say. Sorry for not being able to help; I'm sure someone else will, just be patient. Good luck!

Consider changing/replacing the duh-veloper instead

db_recycle_cache_size has nothing to do with recycle bin, it gives the size of the RECYCLE buffer pool.

If you want to activate recycle bin at instance level, just set "recyclebin" parameter to ON.
If you, despite this parameter set to ON, you don't find the dropped objects in the recycle bin it means Oracle lacks of space and then reuse the one in the recycle bin (just like your Windows PC does).

One more quick question how do we increase the size of the recyclebin and what factor determines the purging of objects from recyclebin is it something like LRU?

any idea?

Like for your Windows PC there is NO actual size of recycle bin, recycle bin size is all space you do not use and need in your tablespaces.
