Joe:

I understand what you say.. But the situation is
very bad. He does **NOT** have ANY backups.

As I stated earlier, right out of the user managed recover docs(loss of
all online redo logs):

you'll need to do the restore from backup, using what archivelogs
available roll forward to point of last archived log and open resetlogs
<--- the abbreviated version.

      Recovering After the Loss of All Members of an Online Redo Log Group

If a media failure damages all members of an online redo log group, then
different scenarios can occur depending on the type of online redo log
group affected by the failure and the archiving mode of the database.

If the damaged log group is inactive, then it is not needed for crash
recovery; if it is active, then it is needed for crash recovery.

*If the group is . . .* *Then . . .* *And you should . . .*

Inactive

It is not needed for crash recovery

Clear the archived or unarchived group.

Active

It is needed for crash recovery

Attempt to issue a checkpoint and clear the log; if impossible, then you
must restore a backup and perform incomplete recovery up to the most
recent available log.

Current

It is the log that Oracle is currently writing to

Attempt to clear the log; if impossible, then you must restore a backup
and perform incomplete recovery up to the most recent available log.

Your first task is to determine whether the damaged group is active or
inactive.


        *Loss of Multiple Redo Log Groups*

If you have lost multiple groups of the online redo log, then use the
recovery method for the most difficult log to recover. The order of
difficulty, from most difficult to least difficult, follows:

   1. The current online redo log
   2. An active online redo log
   3. An unarchived online redo log
   4. An inactive online redo log
