If you screw up a system, don't blame it on me... The process for a full database recovery when in archivelog mode is as follows: #. Restore all database datafiles from backup #. Restore all archived redo logs #. Mount the database: startup mount #. Recover the database: recover database #. Enter aut when oracle prompts you to apply the redo logs. #. Open the database: alter database open
