Hi -

We've encountered some problems with a Unix reboot and I'm trying to figure out if we have any options other than copying all files back and doing a full recovery.

The boot drive was bad on the machine (sun 2.6) and they unix sa replaced it. When it came back up, all of the control files were a old. Also the redo log files were old. The unix sa cannot explain why this happened, so it's my problem to fix it.

When I try to start up the database, it says that my files are more recent than my controlfile. Do I have any options other than a full recovery from previous day? This option is OK, since we are archiving, but it is time consuming because there are 8 databases on this machine, each with a large number of datafiles.

I appreciate any help, comments and feedback!

Lisa
