I don't think you can get the restore point back, but if you want to flashback the database you can use
FLASHBACK DATABASE TO SCN <number>
instead. If you know the approximate time you want to revert to you can get the SCN withTIMESTAMP_TO_SCN
. This assumes that the data is still there, of course. If not it is gone.
