That is correct! I should NOT have said 'COLD'
back up because that could be an ORACLE term.
I just backed-up the files using the OS and I'm
really not interested in current data.
Can I bypass these control files? I know I can
drop redo logs.

I would think that it is definately in a strange state. I know that if you
did this with NT, meaning the database was running and you copied the files
to another location. I am pretty sure you wouldn't be able to get it to
run, I am not even sure that it would copy all of the files.

The best thing you can do is shut the database down. Do a cold back and
through the other one away. Just because you did a backup doesn't mean that
you database is in a strange state. Just start over.
Just my $0.02,

Title: RE: reset control, redo, logs etc
If your database was not shut down, it was not a cold backup.
If your tablespaces were not in backup mode, good luck. Everything will be out of sync.
I suggest taking a true cold backup before doing anything else if you want to save this database
If my database was not shutdown before a cold
backup was made, how do I bring it back up
skipping (or resetting) ctl, headers etc.
Is this possible?
TIA
