Hi Jay,

  When you perform a "recover database using backup controlfile" you are performing an incomplete recovery...  Do a recover database using backup controlfile until cancel...  Cancel...  Then open resetlogs...

Okay, this is weird.

I'm trying to rebuilding my QC database from a hot backup.  As always, I copied all the hot backup files, all the archive logs from the period of the hot backup and the control files.

After doing
recover database using backup controlfile;

I got
SVRMGR> alter database open resetlogs;
alter database open resetlogs
*
ORA-01113: file 1 needs media recovery
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/data1/nyccp/systnyccp.dbf

Thinking that perhaps I just needed to apply more logs I went on to apply another 12 hours worth of archive logs.  I still get the same error. 

Now I'm really concerned that my hot backup is invalid for some reason. Does anyone have any suggestions for what else I can look at?

TIA,
Jay Miller
