I have a "what if" question.
Say you had a complete cold backup, including control files from a few days ago.
You also had all the archive logs for the past few days. Today you lost your server and had to recover. You lay down all the database files, including the control files. Now you want to apply your archive logs. Oracle can't know about the archive logs because all the files you restored are old.
Do you just tell Oracle where the archive logs are and it keeps aplying them until
you say you are finished?

Just wondering.

Ron
