This is the way to create control file manually. Save it as a .sql script. Connect to sqlplus as sysdba and execute this script.
Sql>@create.sql
After execting this it’ll take some time to create the control file and finally you can see the message Control file created.
After that execute this,
Sql>ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;
If database require any recovery issue,
Sql>recover database using backup controlfile;
And apply the redolog file.
It’ll recover from the redo log files.
Eg:
/oracle/db/redo1.log
Recovered.
