Dear New Bee:
We do this all the time, and the problem you're having is
the one that I tripped over my first time, too.
There is an important word missing from your command.
It's not...
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "TEST" RESETLOGS ARCHIVELOG
...it is ...
CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE SET DATABASE "TEST" RESETLOGS ARCHIVELOG
^^^
And when you ALTER DATABASE OPEN you'll also need to say
RESETLOGS.
HTH,
Mike
