You got is right so far.

What you issue from the svrmgrl : startup Oracle goes through the following phases:

1. nomount - init.ora file is read and the SGA is allocated. the location of the control files is read, and they are checked if could be opened.

2. mount - the control files are read, the location of the datafiles is read, the datafiles are checked against the list in the control file. the background proceses are started.

3. open - the headers of the datafiles are checked against the information in the control files, the same for the redo log files, the headers are then updated and database is open.

Hope that helps,
