Hi,

I am facing a problem (I am using Oracle 9i one Windows NT)
with Recovery. It was required due to the below -

SQL> alter database open;
alter database open
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01113: file 1 needs media recovery
ORA-01110: data file 1: 'C:\ORACLE\ORADATA\ROSDEV\SYSTEM01.DBF'

My Restoration went well, but when trying the below its returning error -

RMAN> recover database;

archive log thread 1 sequence 50 is already on disk as file D:\ROSDEV_ARCH\ARCH\ARC00050.001
archive log thread 1 sequence 51 is already on disk as file D:\ROSDEV_ARCH\ARCH\ARC00051.001

But all the files are in place.
Then I tried below to check -

RMAN> LIST BACKUP OF DATAFILE 1;

List of Backup Sets
===================

Its all present there.
Note: I changed the Archivelog destination recently and deleted the obsolete RMAN backups!

I am new to the Administration, Could you please help!

Thanks and Regards,
Debraj

You need to recover to a point in time/scn just prior to last backup.

RMAN> recover database;

Will try to recover to latest and your backup is as of

Hi Mahesh,

It is also not working, as I tried below -

RMAN> RESTORE DATABASE UNTIL TIME "to_date('07/23/2010 00:00:00' , 'mm/dd/yy hh24:mi:ss')";

Starting restore at 05-AUG-10

using channel ORA_DISK_1

>>RMAN> RESTORE DATABASE UNTIL TIME "to_date('07/23/2010 00:00:00' , 'mm/dd/yy hh24:mi:ss')";
It is supposed to yyyy.
Could you check the database incarnation also?
