As your original database name was DEV01 and you are renaming it to DEV03,
if this is a Hot Backup, you must first complete recovery of the database
with the
name DEV01. --ie, do NOT run "create controlfile .. SET DEV03 " but use
"create controlfile DEV01 resetlogs ", then "recover database using backup
controlfile ",
"alter database open resetlogs ", "alter database backup controlfile to trace "
and .. now .. use the new controlfile to rename the database with the "SET
DEV03 RESETLOGS "
and, of course, OPEN RESETLOGS.
OPEN RESETLOGS is required when
a) Performing an incomplete recovery {which you must do first with the
same db_name DEV01}
b) Renaming a database {which are you doing to rename the DB to DEV03}
In any case, your CREATE CONTROLFILE statement seems to be missing some
datafiles.
Why not generate it from the original database DEV01 and modify it ? In
fact, your hot
backup could have included a Controlfile Backup also, which you could have
used to regenerate
the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement.

Hi all,

before
ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
Thanks and Regards,
