We are planning to restore the database from an old tape in December since some data got deleted from a table. Some of our tables have added columns or their columns have changed since the backup. Will we need to restore the entire database including rootdbs, or can we just do a restore of the dbspace that contains our data (dbs0)? We intend to unload the old table with all the intact data and then restore our current data. TIA so much!
