Prerequisites
The following requirements must be met before you start a restore of an Oracle
database:
• If you use the recovery catalog database, make sure that the recovery catalog
database is open. If the recovery catalog database cannot be brought online,
you will probably need to restore the recovery catalog database. See
“
Restore ” on page 94 for details on how to restore the recovery catalog database.
• Control files must be available. If the control files are not available, you must
restore them. See the Oracle Recovery Manager User’s Guide and References
for more details.
If you have to perform a restore of the recovery catalog databaseor control files,
you must perform this restore first. Only then can you perform a restore of other
parts of the Oracle database.
When you are sure that the recovery catalog databaseor control files are in place,
start the recovery catalog database.
• Make sure that the following environment variables are set:
• ORACLE_BASE
• ORACLE_HOME
• ORACLE_TERM
• DB NAME
• PATH
• NLS_LANG
• NLS_DATE_FORMAT
