- Tasmanian devils do not have hands...
- Sybrand is right - if you have no controlfile(s) in your backup, (and your online ones are lost, so I understand) you are skrewed... Maybe Sybrands language is not always as political correct as you wish, but hey, he's not in politics, now is he? Neither am I, btw, and -apart from being countrymen- I am not associated with Sybrand in any way.
Sorry for the delay(s), I'm less online than I want, lately.
How are the attempts to get your datafiles back online
going on? Any chance you might recover some (all?!?) files
from disk?
That would make your life real easy... Just mount, recover,
and you're probably done (assuming your development was
not executing heavy jobs during black out).
You could try to restore the spfile from the backup piece
(if you know where rman stored it).
Nevertheless, without control file... Did you try with
using backup controlfile? That would signal RMAN that
you are using an out of date controlfile, and that the
control file(s) should be rewritten according to data
from the datafiles.
