Dan - When you say recreate a control file are you meaning the CREATE
CONTROLFILE statement? If so, then in answer to that specific issue, the
order of the datafiles does not matter. I do this regularly to create test

Gabriel - Are you just talking about failing the database over to a hot
standby database, and the users would have to be notified to log off and log
on the standby, or are you thinking about automatically failing their
connections over as well? The latter depends on what access methods they
use.
Dan,
I think there is a difference between migrated and moved.
Migrated in my mind refers to a split row - because an update could not fit
in the same block as the record.
Moved in my mind means deleted and re-created, or performed because of an
Alter Table {} Move Tablespace command.
