Simon,
Thanks for the tip. I had assumed that so long as I set
'recovery_target_time' to a value that occurred before the 'fatal
commit' and set the 'inclusive' flag to false that I would be able to
return to just before the deletion occurred.
I'll play with it a bit more and see. I just want to know what to do in
the future should a real emergency like this occur.
Thanks,
jason
