Problem is I've been thrown in at the deep end, my first week of Oracle DBA stuff. This isn't a new installation it's a customers database which was working at one point on our server but now isn't, so I'm trying to restore it from a backup. Therefore the database is tuned to work on their 'much bigger' server, and I'm trying to hack it together to work on ours.

As I don't have this information, could you point me in the correct direction?
