Hi Nirmal,

The command 'alter database backup controlfile to trace' will dump the control file content on a text file with all the SQL command to recreate it.  You gonna find your text file (.trc) in your USER_DUMP_DEST directory.

To test it, you can do this :

1- execute the 'alter database backup controlfile to trace' command
2- remore all lines from the top of the file until STARTUP NOMOUNT
3- shutdown your database
4- delete your control files
5- execute your script

Objet: BACKUP CONTROLFILE TRACE

HI dba's,

if i did 'alter database backup controlfile to trace' this command what will do?, is't create a os trace file?, if so which directory by default.

For test case, to recover the db, if controlfiles are lost.

and then i shutdown the db and removed the existing controlfiles from the oracle directory.

Now, how can i create the control files from the backup trace file.

Please help me.

Regards,
Nirmal
