I'm not sure if the error Jay is getting can be caused by this, but I got
bit by it way back - make sure the tablespace that the file is for was
taken out of backup mode.  If it wasn't, you can apply redo logs all day
long and it will never become current.

Jay,

It is reasonable to assume that your hot backup is NOT ok ;-)

This is *possibly* because this particular file (or maybe more files to
come) wasn't backed up for a while. Can you look at the timestamp of this
file (and other files) in the backup that you restored? That should give
you
a clue... I think this is what's happening here: Oracle needs to make sure
as many logs as needed should be applied to this 'old' file so that the SCN
on this particular file matches the latest one found in the system.dbf, so
you need to keep applying from that point in time until now.... Another
clue
is to trace your archive logs - look at the one that you started applying.
The time on that one is probably the time that your backup of that
particular file became invalid....

Hth,
