Have you tried initiating recovery?  Are you in arclog mode?
Doesn't this work:

SET AUTORECOVER ON

RECOVER DATAFILE 'filenumber';

ALTER DATABASE DATAFILE <filename> ONLINE; 

This may be stickier than just these statements because it is a RBS datafile.

Subject: Rollback segments in "RECOVER" status


Hi all,

I'm running Oracle 7.3 on a Windows NT platform.

Recently I was trying to increase the size of the roll back segments to make
room for a large transaction.  Using Oracle Storage Manager, I set a
datafile offline thinking it would go offline when any transactions that
might be using it finished.  Instead it went in to "RECOVER" mode.

My users are now getting "ORA-00376 file 15 cannot be read at this time."
and "ORA-01110 data file 15: E:\ORANT\DATABASE\RBS2ORCL.ORA."

Rollback segments RB3 through RB16 show a status of "NEEDS RECOVERY". 

I was even going to drop the database, re-create it, and re-import the data,
but it won't even let me do that!

Anyone have an idea of how I can get out of this problem?

Thanks,

Wayne Andersen
