Get into svrmgrl and issue a Startup Mount command. Then issue "Alter Database Rename File 'E:filename' to 'D:filename" for each and every datafile in your database (Redo Logs, and all Tablespaces). After you have done this, you should be able to issue an Alter Database Open command, and  you should be all set.   Good Luck!   Tom Mercadante Oracle Certified Professional -----Original Message-----From: Bunyamin K.

How will I manager that ?          And in the control file backup , there is "reuse" keyword . will I neglect it?    Thank you Bunyamin
