I am getting following error while starting up the database,
<database_file_name.ora> is corruptted. this file cannot be varified.
What is database file corruption? what might be the possible causes? how can we recover the database files(i have the cold back up)?
thanx,
regards,
soham

If you have a database with 10 files, but only one is corrupted, replace that ONE file with the backup copy, and recover. You don't need to recover all of the files. This will save a lot of time because the redo only needs to be applied to that one file. Of course, your database must have been in archive log mode.
