Suppose you did restore an Oracle data base that was 7 years old.
How confident are you that your Oracle software could still read it?

I keep getting this pressure from clients to keep copies of their 500GB
oracle database for 7 years. They don't seem to know why they want it kept
for seven years. Like most others they don't think of what their restore
requirements are.
Has anyone had to restore/retrieve a large database that was, say more than
2 years old. If so was it successful and was it as simple as restoring just
the DB.
ThanX
