database. The backups and the archived redo log files are copied to a tape drive on a daily basis. The
database was open and transactions were recorded in the redo logs. Because of fire in the building you
lost your servers having the production database and the recovery catalog database. The archive log files
generated after the last backup are intact on one of the remote locations. While performing a disaster
recovery of the production database what is the next step that you must perform after restoring the data
files and applying archived redo logs?
A. Open the database in NORMAL mode
B. Open the database in read-only mode
C. Open the database in RESTRICTED mode
D. Open the database with the RESETLOGS option
Answer: D

RESETLOGS
A technique for opening a database that archives any current online redo logs (if using ARCHIVELOG
mode), resets the log sequence number to 1, and clears the online redo logs. An ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS
statement begins a new database incarnation. The starting SCN for the new incarnation, sometimes called the RESETLOGS
SCN, is the incomplete recovery SCN of the media recovery preceding the OPEN RESETLOGS
, plus one.
An ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS
statement is required after incomplete recovery or recovery with a backup control file. An OPEN
RESETLOGS
operation does not affect the recoverability of the database. Backups from before the OPEN
RESETLOGS
operation remain valid and can be used along with backups taken after theOPEN
RESETLOGS
operation to repair any damage to the database.
