"Error identifying datafile" after successful recovery from RMAN

From: Sami Seerangan <dba.orcl_at_gmail.com>
Date: Thu, 17 Feb 2005 17:10:57 -0500
Message-ID: <f09dd628050217141078627d97@mail.gmail.com>


Environment: 9i RAC , 2 Node veritas cluster

One of the datafile got corrupted and restored form RMAN backup. However even after recovery
I used to get "ORA-01187: cannot read from file 7 because it failed verification tests"

Then I did log switch few times, then it started working. What could be wrong here?

Thanks in advance.
