SYSTEM TS Corruption - Zero Blocks

667113Dec 11 2008 — edited Dec 3 2010
One of our production instances use operating system level COPY as backup method. When we tried to implement rman backups, we came to know there are some zero blocks in system tablespace. after doing a DBV on the datafile noted by rman, we found there are 12 corrupt/zero pages in system03.dbf.

We cannot go to a backup and roll forward, because we dont know since when this system03 is corrupt. The only option that comes to mind is a full export and rebuild of the database. This is an oracle applications db and pretty critical. The size is around 300GB. We cant afford that much downtime on production.

Any ideas ? so far we didnt have any reported issues due to this corruption. The corrupted object in SYS.IDL_UB1$.
