Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Please advice sql server vs. Oracle
What is probably missing as a bit of extra information
is that the restore involves the ENTIRE database, OFFLINE.
There is no such thing as partial restores, partial backups,
incremental backups or partial recovery with SS2K. It's all
or nothing. And when all is being restored, you're out for
the duration.
