上周一个朋友的数据库发生误删除操作，请我帮忙进行恢复。
由于备份比较充分，所以只需要通过RMAN进行一个基于时间点（这个时间点需要根据故障时间进行判断选取）。
首先启动实例:
[oracle@stat ~]$ export ORACLE_SID=order
[oracle@stat ~]$ rman target /Recovery Manager: Release 10.2.0.2.0 - Production on Thu Sep 14 22:43:50 2006
Copyright (c) 1982, 2005, Oracle. All rights reserved.
connected to target database (not started)
RMAN> set DBID=1341966532
executing command: SET DBID
RMAN> startup nomount;

Fixed Size 1262344 bytes
Variable Size 654314744 bytes
Database Buffers 1811939328 bytes
Redo Buffers 15511552 bytes
恢复数据文件并加载(mount)数据库:
RMAN> restore controlfile from autobackup;Starting restore at 14-SEP-06
using target database control file instead of recovery catalog
allocated channel: ORA_DISK_1
channel ORA_DISK_1: sid=541 devtype=DISKchannel ORA_DISK_1: looking for autobackup on day: 20060914

Restore数据库:

channel ORA_DISK_1: restore complete, elapsed time: 00:03:06
Finished restore at 14-SEP-06
进行基于时间点的恢复：
RMAN> recover database until time '2006-09-14 19:00:00'
2> ;Starting recover at 14-SEP-06
using channel ORA_DISK_1
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================

RMAN-03002: failure of recover command at 09/14/2006 22:49:54
ORA-01861: literal does not match format stringRMAN> exit
Recovery Manager complete.
这个错误是由于时间日期格式设置的问题。
设置正确的时间格式，进行基于时间点的不完全恢复:
[oracle@stat ~]$ export NLS_DATE_FORMAT='yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss'
[oracle@stat ~]$ rman target /Recovery Manager: Release 10.2.0.2.0 - Production on Thu Sep 14 22:50:22 2006

Resetlogs打开数据库:
RMAN> alter database open resetlogs;database opened
RMAN>
此时可以检查数据的正确性，如果无误就可以通过exp导出数据，再imp进生产数据库，完成恢复。
在有了充分的备份的前提下，这样的恢复是非常容易的。
这个故事再次告诉我们：备份重于一切。
