I've never tired this but could you ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO
TRACE and then use that for a
CREATE CONTROLFILE?
If you don't have any data missing from your datafiles and all you need to
do is make your controlfiles current, this should do it.

Subject: Database Recovery - any options?

Please

ORACLE-L
Hi -
We've encountered some problems with a Unix reboot and I'm trying to figure
out if we have any options other than copying all files back and doing a
full recovery.
The boot drive was bad on the machine (sun 2.6) and they unix sa replaced
it. When it came back up, all of the control files were a old. Also the
redo log files were old. The unix sa cannot explain why this happened, so
it's my problem to fix it.
When I try to start up the database, it says that my files are more recent
than my controlfile. Do I have any options other than a full recovery from
previous day? This option is OK, since we are archiving, but it is time
consuming because there are 8 databases on this machine, each with a large
number of datafiles.
I appreciate any help, comments and feedback!
Lisa
