Am I missing something? In my scenario I don't have shell access to server, onyl remote access via ssh. I've a 2.5 gbak file and a 3.0 server running. I was trying to restore the database without sysdba account and with only editing database.conf once. This is currently not possible. I'll investigate the situation a little bit further in the next days... Thanks.
