9.3.6 Recovering the Database

You can recover a restored data file by applying archived redo logs and online redo logs; that is,
records of changes made to the database after the backup was taken. The following sections provide
instructions for two methods you can use to recover the database:
"Complete Recovery" on page 95
"Incomplete Recovery" on page 96
Complete Recovery
Complete recovery involves using redo data or incremental backups combined with a backup of a
database, tablespace, or data file, to update it to the most current point in time. This is called a
complete recovery because Oracle applies all of the redo changes contained in the archived and
online logs to the backup. Typically, a complete media recovery is performed after a media failure
damages data files or the control file.
1 Use the following sequence of commands to perform a complete recovery of the database.
RMAN> connect target /
RMAN> run {
2> startup mount ;
3> restore database ;
4> recover database ;
5> alter database open ;
6> }
