Makes sense to me. The only basic that you seem to have not completely grasped is that a complete cold backup of a database in archivelog that includes the control files ... online logs ... etc ... along with database files of course ... is good to go from a recovery standpoint using only that plus future archivelogs.
It may not be efficiently exactly esp with lots of archivelogs to apply ...

Lots of opinions here about the quality of Oracle Support in the last several years. It used to be so good but that was a long time back now.
Don't hold your breath in other words ... most of us are used to the self service approach.

We appreciate someone making the effort that you are. I think several people including me were thrown off initially by what you were doing with extra control file backups and restores of those backups. Received on Sun Feb 22 2009 - 13:11:19 CST
