I've been told a single control file failure will halt
the database, even if you've got another control file on
a second device; that the database will only come up again
after editing the init.ora to remove the reference to the
faulty control file and initiating a fresh startup.
Is this still true, if it ever was true for any version of Oracle, for
Oracle 8.X+? The person who warned me about the halt has been using
Oracle since version 5.
Thanks very much.
