Hello Gurus,

As I explained in my first post, my company has just bought Oracle8i Server Entreprise Edition v8.1.7 release 3.
Our OS is windows 2000 Server Advanced Edition.
And I have bee assign the task to be the inhouse DBA.
I am a complete newbie but I have been learning much for the last couple of months.
I am actually putting in place our backu/recovery strategy.
I tried to simulate a complete lost of the database (datafile+cf+redo). The DB is in archivelog
When I try to recover I have the following errors.

My backup scripts are :
replace script alloc_disk
{
allocate channel d1 type disk;
}

replace script rel_disk
{
release channel d1;
}


replace script FullDisk
{
backup
full
filesperset 10
tag FullHotDisk_DB
format 'D:\backup\%d_%s_%t.df'
database include current controlfile
;
sql 'alter system archive log current';
backup
filesperset 25
format 'D:\backup\%d_%s_%t.arch'
archivelog all
delete input
;
}

replace script FullDisk
{
resync catalog;
execute script alloc_disk;
execute script FullDisk;
execute script rel_disk;
resync catalog;
}

BACKUP WORKS FINE[B]
