Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Snapshot Logs Explanation Needed
I would like to reorg many tables which have snapshots associated with them. I understand that if the master table is dropped the snapshot log is also dropped. When a log is dropped, oracle states that you need to do a complete refresh of the affected snapshot. My question is why? If you do not allow users to access the database with the master table, then you should not have any transactions that would be lost. Why can't you create a new log and continue to do a fast refresh? I am trying to avoid having to recreate all the snapshots due to the size and number that we have. Any thoughts? Thanks
