Re: Restore from cold to new server

No Problem. U have all the datafiles including system.  If it is windows, create a service with any name, either the ORACLE_SID you have in yr files, if you know the SID and wanna create with the same, or the new SID u want to create with.
 Hey, U should have the SID as you said you have the controlfile from the trace.
 Create the service.
 startup nomount.
 Create controlfile with the changes , I mean location of datafiles and redo log files.
 alter database open ;
 U r ready to go...!!! Let me know if you want anything more than this...!!!
