hello
i had an oracle server running on win xp, for some reasons they want to format the system , reinstall windows xp ,oracle server9i and restore the database ,
i have a daily cold backup for the database.
i just need ut help over the appropriate steps for doing so .
here the steps that i have :
1-installation of winxp
2-installation of orcale server9i
3- on sqlplys>startup nomount
4-create database with the same name as the old
5-copy the cold backup to drive d for example
6-edit the init parameter file to point to the location of the restored control files.

on sqlplus>
alter database mount
alter database open

shall i create the datatbase as i stated in step 4 , using the restored datafiles , control files , redo files ...
or just editing the init file is enough so no need to create the database

No need to create the database, its already there.

You can search the forum for copying/cloning the database. It will help.
