The SYSAUX tablespace stores data for auxiliary applications such as the Log Miner, Work space Manager, Oracle Data Mining, Oracle Streams, and many other Oracle tools.
- This tablespace is automatically created if you use the DataBase Creation Assistant(DBCA) software to build an Oracle database.
- Like the SYSTEM tablespace, SYSAUX requires a higher level of security and it cannot be dropped or renamed.
- Do not allow user objects to be stored in SYSAUX. This tablespace should only store system specific objects.
- This is a permanent tablespace.
RECOVERY:
If you have backup of sysaux and following all archives then you can recover sysaux tablespace.
RMAN> restore tablespace sysaux; RMAN> recover tablespace sysaux; SQL> alter tablespace sysaux online;
If you say you lost sysaux file and you don’t have backup and all archive files, then you don’t have option of recreating sysaux tablespace
Solution for this scenario:
you may have to use CTAS or export backup of this database and rebuild complete database.
you may not be able to deal with physical backup.
