While handing with undo tablespace you need to be extra cautious due to active transactions in the undo segments. You need to follow different approach depend upon scenario.
Scenario 1: Undo/rollback datafile damaged or dropped accidently when database is up
In this scenario the lost or damaged datafile may contain the active transactions and you cannot able to offline or drop the undo/rollback datafile.
• Startup mount
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT
• Check the status of the datfile
SQL> SELECT FILE#, NAME, STATUS FROM V$DATAFILE;
If the datafile is offline you must bring the datafile online before you recover
• Restore and Recover the datafile
$ rman TARGET / CATALOG rman/*****@rman
RMAN> Restore datafile 'fullpath_and_filename'
RMAN> Recover datafile 'fullpath_and_filename'
• Open the database.
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
Scenario 2: Undo/rollback datafile damaged or dropped accidently when database is down
• If using automatic UNDO_MANAGMENT then comment out the parameter in init.ora file. If using rollback segments then comment out ROLLBACK_SEMGNETS parameter
• Mount the database in restricted mode
SQL> STARTUP RESTRICT MOUNT
• Offline the undo or rollback datafile and drop the file
SQL> ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE 'fullpath_and_filename' OFFLINE DROP;
• Open the database and drop the UNDO tablespace or the tablespace which contains the rollback segments
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN
SQL> DROP TABLESPACE tablespace_name INCLUDING CONTENTS;
• Recreate the undo tablespace. If you are using rollback segments, recreate the rollback segment tablespace and rollback segments. Make sure to bring the rollback segments online.
If using Undo tablespace
SQL> CREATE UNDO TABLESPACE undotbs2 DATAFILE '/oradata/undotbs2_01.dbf' SIZE 100M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON;
If using rollback segment tablespace
SQL> CREATE TABLESPACE rollback_tbs DATAFILE '/oradata/rollback_tbs01.dbf' SIZE 100M EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL;
SQL> CREATE ROLLBACK SEGMENT rollback1 TABLESPACE rollback_tbs;
SQL> ALTER ROLLBACK SEGMENT rollback1 ONLINE;
• Modify the parameter file settings
If using UNDO tablespace
UNDO_MANAGEMENT=AUTO
UNDO_TABLESPACE=new_undo_tablespace_name
If you are using the rollback segment tablespace, include the rollback segments that you created in previous step in ROLLBACK_SEMGNETS parameter in init.ora file
• Take the database out of restricted mode.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM DISABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
Oracle 11g introduced a new feature called RMAN UNDO Bypass. The RMAN backup command no longer backs up the UNDO data that is not needed for recovery. Prior to Oracle 11g, all UNDO transactions that were already committed also backed up. This backup undo optimization minimizes the backup time and storage.

You can also follow below steps to recover oracle database tablespace.
ReplyDelete1. Set undo_management to MANUAL
2. Startup pfile
3. Drop undo tablespace (If it was created wrongly without undo keyword)
4. Create undo tablespace undotbs datafile '??????' size 1M reuse;
5. Shutdown database.
6. Set undo_management to AUTO-
7. Startup
