Setup: Oracle 8i Standard Ed., Windows NT4.0 sp6
Background: I'm not a DBA, but I'm stuck fixing a clients screwed up
database. Before you tell me to read the f-ing manual, I've read
everything I can get my hands on. I've been reading for 2 weeks but
everything is either not specific to my problem, too technical, or too
vague. I have all of the datafiles, redo logs, control files, etc.,
but I had to reinstall Oracle because of a fried c: partition. I've
created a new DB with the same Global DB Name and SID as the old
instance.
Question: How can I restore this DB? Please provide as detailed an
explanation as possible.
Thanks,
Danny
