If you are testing.. and want to try it again.. Backup CONTROL FILE at the
end.. i.e. even after the archive logs are backed up.

> rman nocatalog

> backup database;
> backup current controlfile;
> backup archivelog all;
> }

> 3) Delete all *.dbf, control and archive log files (simulate a

> 4) Restore controlfile from the lastest rman backupset using the
> pl/sql script available in the Oracle 8i Recovery Manager User Guide
> and Reference.
>
> 5) Now controlfile is restored and I startup the database nomount.
>
> 6) Attempting to restore database using rman results in rman saying
> that the latest backup set in unavailable.
>
> 7) This is because I used the controlfile as the rman repository. And

> updated backupset information.

> 8) How do you solve this problem?
