Hi,

I am trying to upload a database backup on a machine. Since the structure of files is different from server, how can i start the database.

Do i need to create a new control file? If yes, how can i run the sql command "Alter database backup controlfile to trace" in nomount mode.

Thanks,

Dear Friend ,

Well in order to refresh the dump of the database to another server , the operating system should be same .
Things which you have do is.

cold copy / hot backup copy to tape or scp/rcp to the destination server where ever you found the space .
cp init$ORACLE_SID file to the destination server.
make directories for bdump udump cdump and change the db name if you required.
change the controlfile information and make changes accordingly to your mountpoints.

on production , give alter database backup controlfile to trace ;
in udump directory you will be given a trace .
modify the trace accordingly the file name and mountpoint which you have moved to destination .
recreate the controlfile.

In depends on what you mean by "dump". An export dump is independent of the system.

RMAN and DUPLICATE command is a far better way.
