I doubt this will work if you have active transactions in your undo file.

It will work, but be careful using it on production environment. Check this: http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:5669213349582

This what I said, it can't work if "you have active transactions in your undo file".
In Tom example, the file was moved when the database was down and so there was no active transaction.

Agree, it depends on how database was shut down. According to author's description, he has his database been already shut down. What should he do in that way? He would need to bypass it anyway because his file is missed.
