ORACLE_HOME deleted on test
Hello,
Oracle_home folder deleted / missing / corrupted on test instance
App - 12.1.3
Database - 11.1.0.7
system - rhel 5
Kindly provide steps to resolve via PROD oracle_home copying.
- Long story -
Some folders in oracle_home got deleted (e.g bin was reported first)
So i copied bin from prod and relinked but was unable to start database with ORA-12547: TNS:LOST CONTACT
exact steps
copy paste oracle_home/bin
relink all
start listner (Was proper)
now database part
sqlplys / as sysdba
ORA-12547: TNS:LOST CONTACT
I than ran root.sh
still nothing.
Than i found that not only bin but few very important folder are missing too as DBS, APPSUTIL etc. So in short ORACLE_HOME is damaged.
