I am trying to recover a database up to a certain point in time. Restored my disks from a backup (disk to disk copy with raw devices on disks), and the archived redo logs from tape, started a RECOVER database until time <timespec> using backup controlfile; and finally got :

ORA-00283: Recovery session canceled due to errors
ORA-01244: unnamed datafile(s) added to controlfile by media recovery
ORA-01110: data file 66: '/dev/rdsk/RTS_BS2/CRE_DATA01_03'
ORA-01110: data file 65: '/dev/rdsk/RTS_BS2/CRE_DATA01_02'
ORA-01110: data file 64: '/dev/rdsk/RTS_BS2/CRE_DATA01_01'

What happend is that we added datafiles after the backup, but I thought Oracle - during the roll forward process - could handle the add datafile process and update the controlfile, like in normal operation.

Any thoughts ? Received on Tue May 30 2000 - 12:30:52 CDT
