Remove the TARGDB Database

In this section, I want to remove the TARGDB database to simulate and setup a disaster recovery situation. If the instance is still running, it will need to be shutdown:

% rm /u03/app/oradata/TARGDB/*
% rm /u04/app/oradata/TARGDB/*
% rm /u05/app/oradata/TARGDB/*
% rm /u06/app/oradata/TARGDB/*

% sqlplus "/ as sysdba"

SQL> shutdown abort

SQL> exit
