Oracle基于时间点的恢复能够精确到什么样的精度?
这是一个需要关心的问题。
以下测试用于进行一点说明。
1.首先做好冷备份
2.创建测试数据
D:\>sqlplus "/ as sysdba"

3.恢复备份数据
保留当前日志
D:\>sqlplus "/ as sysdba"

SQL> select to_char(sysdate,'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') from dual;
11:58:15 SQL> alter session set nls_date_format='yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss';
Session altered.
Elapsed: 00:00:00.00
11:58:17 SQL> recover database until time '2005-01-17 11:57:28';

recover database until time '2010-10-19 18:25:03';
--恢复到提交完成时刻
11:58:33 SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
Database altered.
Elapsed: 00:00:05.08
11:58:46 SQL> select * from test;
no rows selected
Elapsed: 00:00:00.00
--注意此时数据没有被恢复。
--也就是说，落在了提交之前
4.第二个测试

11:49:34 SQL>
11:49:35 SQL>

11:49:36 SQL>
11:49:37 SQL> drop table test;

11:51:22 SQL> alter database open resetlogs;

11:51:32 SQL> select * from test;

Elapsed: 00:00:00.00
--数据得以恢复
结论:
Oracle能够恢复的时间精度为1秒，但是在Oracle数据库内部，用以产生SCN的时间点有更为精确的精度。
所以，如果你指定秒级恢复，如11:57:28，那么秒后的精度被置00，反而就落在了提交之前。（猜测）
而等待下一秒来到时，这种情况就不会出现了。
