Bob-

If archived logs backup are thr' RMAN, How would you apply these archived
log backup pieces manually for PTR ?

Thanks

If the datafiles were restored successfully, then it's
just a matter of manually restoring any needed
archived redo logs to the new database and applying
them manually. Then open the database. You will have
to do this as a point in time recovery, and just
recover to the last archived redo log sequence that
you restored.

You may also want to reset the DBID if RMAN has not
done so already.
