RE: problem with recovery

When I give the recovery the name of the online
file, it gets:

ORA-353 Log curruption near block 81=20

That is a standard stuff. Don't use autorecovery and when oracle asks
for archived redo log, you give the path name for the online redo
log file that contains the deseired information. You can get the=20
group number containining the desired change number from V$LOG

SQL> desc v$log
 Name                                      Null?    Type

---------------------------- GROUP#                                      =

 FIRST_TIME                                         DATE
=20
and then get member pathname(s) from V$LOGFILE:
SQL> desc v$logfile
 Name                                      Null?    Type
 ----------------------------------------- -------- =
---------------------------- GROUP#                                      =
       NUMBER
 STATUS                                             VARCHAR2(7)
 TYPE                                               VARCHAR2(7)
 MEMBER                                             VARCHAR2(513)
 IS_RECOVERY_DEST_FILE                              VARCHAR2(3)
=20
The command to start recovery with would be:
RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE UNTIL CANCEL;

I've seen database ask for the SCNs in the online logfiles quite a few =
times.
No big deal.
