Hi Rob, I know it has been a while but we managed to perform a point-in-time recovery. I am not really sure what the problem was but I guess it has to do with not reading exactly (use GMT and not local time zone, copying archivelogs to the wrong place, etc.).
So everything should work as described but I think there should be a little more automation in it.

If you turn up debug log4j settings, you should be able to see whether the replay is correctly applying mutations to memtables. Do you see a flush of memtables to sstables at the end of commitlog replay? If not, memtables are not being created by commitlog replay. =Rob -- Dennis Schwan Oracle DBA Mail Core 1&1 Internet AG | Brauerstraße 48 | 76135 Karlsruhe | Germany Phone: +49 721 91374-8738 E-Mail: dennis.sch...@1und1.de<mailto:dennis.sch...@1und1.de> | Web: www.1und1.de<http://www.1und1.de> Hauptsitz Montabaur, Amtsgericht Montabaur, HRB 6484 Vorstand: Ralph Dommermuth, Frank Einhellinger, Robert Hoffmann, Andreas Hofmann, Markus Huhn, Hans-Henning Kettler, Uwe Lamnek, Jan Oetjen, Christian Würst Aufsichtsratsvorsitzender: Michael Scheeren Member of United Internet Diese E-Mail kann vertrauliche und/oder gesetzlich geschützte Informationen enthalten.
