Hi all,
I made a valid backup of Oracle 9i on Win2003. I am trying to test restore and recovery using the following script: shutdown;
startup mount;
restore database;
recover database;
alter database open resetlogs;

Here is what I get:

---

RMAN> restore database;

Starting restore at 15-DEC-05

using target database controlfile instead of recovery catalog allocated channel: ORA_DISK_1
channel ORA_DISK_1: sid=12 devtype=DISK
