hi,

If i m not wrong then you want to find the bad portion of of datafile & than want to repari it right.. i dont know any query but there is one utility by which you can find the corrupt block of datafile and you can repair it...

The name of the utiliy is dbverify.

• DBVERIFY is an external command-line utility that perform physical data structure integrity check.

• It can be used on offline or online database as well as backup files.

• Primarily when we need to ensure that backup database (or datafile) is valid before it is restored we use this utility.

• This utility can be run against an offline database, integrity check checks are significantly faster.

• DBVERIFY is only for use with datafiles , it will not work against control files or redo logs.


Example: - Using DBVERIFY to validate Disk Block of a Single Data file.
(When block size is of 2k)

D:\oracle\oradata\hclsunil>dbv FILE=system01.dbf feedback=100

below is output...
