How do you see that? Did you try to write into it? If not you cannot know if it is available for a write access as Oracle did it.
Retry to start the database.
If it does not work, stop the instance, save the control file somewhere, copy another control file into this one, and try to restart the database.
Regards
Michel

hi michel,
i got 3 control files in the list
SQL> show parameter control file
NAME TYPE VALUE
--------------- ---------- --------------------
control_files string /U02/database/moi1/control01.ctl,
/U02/database/moi1/control02.ctl,
/U02/database/moi1/control03.ctl
so you are asking me copy paste the controlfile2 and rename as control01.txt, and startup.

Now you have 2 options:
- copy the number 2 into the number 1
- remove the number 1 from the list (but you will have to do the first option at the shutdown to keep the same safety)
