OK, that may be more difficult than I thought so far. I'm not sure if we can solve this by only mailing because this is very complex to restore the paramfile of the old instance so that we can copy the data devspaces back so that the params and volumes fits together and the kernel will accept this. BTW, the registration can be easiely restored. Registrate it again in the DBMGUI and it will be back. But, 1. are you really sure that you have the same parameterfile now as before for the old instance? 2. Is this new instance already startable to ONLINE after the recreation? 3. Do you have the old paramfile of the old installation? Usually this file can be found in <indepdatapath>\config\<Databasename> 4. Do the newly created files DATA001, LOG001 and SYS001 have the same size down to the byte as the files you have from before the OS crash? 5. The files DATASAVE and AUTOSAVE.001 seems to be standard data and log backups of the SAP DB, can't you use them to start the standard process with the datanse wizard as described before?
