Folks

A Basic issue - Addition of Redo logfile onto RAW Device is Failing with the 
following error.
NOTE - Existing Database Redo Logfiles exist on Mounted Filesystem, like the 
est of the Database files.

Qs Should REUSE be used in the Add logfile Command?

Oracle 10.2.0.3.0
HP-UX B.11.23

Cheers & Thanks V much
