RMAN -- 4b : Recovering from an Incomplete Restore with OMF Files

Following up on my previous post (which had the datafiles as non-OMF), here is a case with OMF files.

SQL> select file_name from dba_data_files
  2  where tablespace_name = 'HEMANT';

I have removed the datafiles for a tablespace. Note that the datafiles are all OMF.  I then attempt to restore the tablespace.

[To understand why I queried both V$DATAFILE and V$DATAFILE_HEADER, see my previous post "Datafiles not Restored  --  using V$DATAFILE and V$DATAFILE_HEADER".]

So, datafiles 7 and 9 have been restored. We can see that in the RESTORE log as well -- "backup piece 1" in the RESTORE had datafiles 7 and 9 and was the only one to complete. Let's check the datafile names. Datafiles 7 and 9 are differently named from what they were earlier.  Earlier, they were "%bst85%", now they are "%bst90%".

So, if we want to re-run the restore, we can use SET NEWNAME for datafiles 7 and 9 to allow Oracle to check that they are already restored.

YES ! Datafiles 7 and 9 were identified as "already restored".
Let's re-check the datafiles and then RECOVER them.
