SAP Note 4161 - Complete recovery

Summary :
The SAP Note provides guidance on restoring and completing a recovery in Oracle databases. Missing or defective data files, SHUTDOWN or database crash without "END BACKUP," and data files set to "OFFLINE" in ARCHIVELOG mode are common issues addressed. The solution involves detailed steps: SHUTDOWN, taking an offline backup, restoring defective data files, and performing recovery actions without opening the database until redo logs are imported. Steps include using SQL*Plus, handling control files, recovering and bringing data files online, and special procedures for temporary and index tablespaces. The procedure concludes with the necessity of full offline backups if "RESETLOGS" is used.
