A power user accidentally updates all the rows in your production table. But no one knows about it until the next day. What do you do?
Yes, you have database backups (you do, don’t you?) and other safeguards in place. But bad things still happen to good databases. Is there a recovery approach other than restoring from backup, and then rolling the right transactions forward? Toad® for Oracle has a little-known ability to “mine” Oracle’s re-do logs.
In this session, learn how this one feature alone could save you time and aggravation when recovering from unplanned events to the database.

Straight from our speakers to you: read why they think you should attend this webcast and the key take away that is their favorite learning point.
“As I was conducting a Toad Tips and Tricks session to a group of DBAs not long ago, a rather remorseful chuckle from the DBA manager suddenly interrupted my demo of the Log Miner. He explained that they could have used the Log Miner a few months ago, had they known about it,” said Gary Jerep, software solutions consultant at Quest Software.
“Turns out that, sure enough, the team had to recover from an accidental update to a production table that wasn’t discovered for a few days. They restored from backup and rolled forward to recover successfully, but not without a few extra man-hours of headache. Admittedly in their case, the Log Miner could have accomplished the same recovery in a fraction of the time,” said Jerep.
“It’s beautiful to see time after time how Toad features like this one can increase productivity, reduce risk, and save reputations,” concluded Jerep.
