Mehul,
There is only one way to make your database up..that is by recovering the files restored from older copies to the timestamp of the file restored from latest copy.Ofcourse this is possible only if you have all the arc files intact from the timestamp at which you have oldest datafile to the timestamp at which you have the latest datafile

Dear friends,
 I am not able to start one very old =
Oracle6 DB restored recently. This is
 due to the mismatches in data files =
(files were (cold) backed up at
 different dates)
 I understand that it is impossible in =
normal cases. Is there any method
 (documented/undocumentd) to force the =
start (let some objects be in
 unpredicatble state!)
 Can we change some bytes in header of =
datafiles / controlfiles to make
 them sync to system.dbf or something =
like that.


Appreciate if somebody can highlight. =
I am really in big trouble.


Mehul.
