Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Urgent -Formated windows and need to restore
Hi all and thanks for your replies,
My Oracle version is 10g( I reinstall it today) and Windows XP sp2.I did
not format windows,One of SAs did it because of an HW problem with
motherboard that he did imagine is a Disk problem.
He have formatted only C: so our windows was gone and all other programs
remained useless.I have a backup but it is for about 1 week ago and so old
and I don't want to loose recent weeks data.
Today I installed a new Oracle without "create database using dbca" option ,
at the same path as old one(I moved old oracle files before doing this).
Now my problem is: How can I associate those old files with the new
instance? I know I should use oradim.exe but what then? Can anyone help me?
This is so vital for me!
-Thanks in advance
