Ok... I have the tapes now so I don't have to bother...but would this scenario have been fixed by using the _allow_resetlogs_corruption parameter and following the associated steps????
Sorry for the bother Sujatha -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, 28 January 2003 11:14 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi, DB: 8.1.5.0.0 O/S: Solaris 2.7 This database is the recovery catalog database. It is in noarchivelog mode and is backed up cold. Unfortunately, something happened on Thursday and the database does not startup. I receive the following errors: SQL> startup ORACLE instance started. Total System Global Area 25410960 bytes Fixed Size 64912 bytes Variable Size 8388608 bytes Database Buffers 16777216 bytes Redo Buffers 180224 bytes Database mounted.

I know I have the cold backups ... but they have sent the tapes off site and it is going to take a while for the tapes to be located and sent to the data center and we need this catalog database up and running asap.
