control file to add

Hi DBAs,

I am in the situation to add a 2 more control file in my production DB for future recovery purpose.

I tried something but failed.

Can anyone let me know how to proceed.

OS - WIN NT 4
DB - 8.1.5 Production.

Thanx in adavance.

1. Shutdown

2. OS copy the control file to the new location ( or give it a new name)

3. Add the control file you've just added in the CONTROL_FILE section in the init file.

4. Restart.
