Gidget Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 I am in kind of a bind. Every week I restore our production Database into a different database on a different Server for viewing by the users. Both Server are Windows boxes running V9.5 Usually a just do a redirected restore but the datbase is growing by eaps and bounds so this week I decided to drop the target database and then recreate it fresh, set the tablespace and then restore. I dropped the target database and now I cannot recreate it in that instance. when i try and recreate it I get this error: SQL1005N The database alias "dutdm" already exists in either the local database directory or system database directory. I have tried catloging and uncataloging the target database in the instance.. whatever I try it just says the database does not exist. Can anyone help?????
