point in time recovery

  • hi guys i am new in this forum i need your help

    my db is full recovery mode

    recently i take a full backup but don't have any log backup

    after half an hour one table is drop

    so i can only recover db till last full backup or

    there is any option to recover the only drop table without affecting other tables cos lot of changes in other tables?

    and

    there is any option or sys object to know the time when the object is droped?

    i take current log file backup but don't know the exect time when the table is droped?

    thanks

  • You can check the default trace for the information. If not too much time has passed, it should have the time in it.

    Otherwise, take the log backup, try restoring to different times to find when the drop occurred.

  • there is any option to recover the only drop table without affecting other tables cos lot of changes in other tables?

    Find out the time the table was dropped as per the suggestions by Steve.

    Take a transaction log backup.

    Restore the full and transaction log to another database, to the point in time before the table was dropped.

    Copy the contents of the dropped table to your current database, perhaps using the SELECT ... INTO construct.

    You can restore most recent backup ( before dropping table ) at any other location. then may be using EXPORT method , you can migrate that table to desired database.
