Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> ** fall back backups
Hi,
Now that clocks have been set back one hour (in us of a etc), it is time to bounce the databases. Since Oracle says it needs to be done (read some analyst in a TAR said it).
Is it for backups? I agree time based recovery to a point in time could lead to issues. However, will it affect the regular recovery until cancel which I think goes by SCN/log #. Please correct me if I am wrong.
Also once you have a couple of backups after the fall back resetting of clock is it still necessary to bounce databases and immediately take 2 backups?
Apart from backups does setting the clock back affect anything else on the database? Thanks
