Problem in moving database to new host

Question

Hi,
I'm moving database from linux to windows and it perfectly moves as there is no endian formate issue between two OS. Now my problem is when I run below script
RUN
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 1 TO 'C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\system01.dbf';
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 3 TO 'C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\undotbs01.dbf';
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 2 TO 'C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\sysaux01.dbf';
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 4 TO 'C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\users01.dbf';
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 5 TO 'C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\example01.dbf';
SET NEWNAME FOR DATAFILE 6 TO 'C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\apps_data01.dbf';
SQL "ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE
''D:\test\redo01.log''
TO ''C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\redo01.log'' ";
SQL "ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE
''/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/redo02.log''
TO ''C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\redo02.log'' ";
SQL "ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE
''/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/redo03.log''
TO ''C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\redo03.log'' ";
SET UNTIL SCN 743262;
RESTORE DATABASE from 'C:\app\Administrator\flash_recovery_area\ORCL\backupset\2010_10_03\o1_mf_nnndf_TAG20101003T121537_6bjcf7bj_.bkp';
SWITCH DATAFILE ALL;
RECOVER DATABASE;
datafiles get renamed successfuly but it gives error on remaning redolog files as error stack of RMAN is given below
executing command: SET NEWNAME
executing command: SET NEWNAME
executing command: SET NEWNAME
executing command: SET NEWNAME
executing command: SET NEWNAME
executing command: SET NEWNAME
sql statement: ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE''D:\test\redo01.log''TO ''C:\app\Admin
istrator\oradata\orcl\redo01.log''
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============

RMAN-03009: failure of sql command on default channel at 10/06/2010 20:30:43
RMAN-11003: failure during parse/execution of SQL statement: ALTER DATABASE RENA
ME FILE'D:\test\redo01.log'TO 'C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\redo01.log'
ORA-01511: error in renaming log/data files
ORA-01516: nonexistent log file, datafile, or tempfile "D:\test\redo01.log"
Now I have created all dummy redolog to redo01.log,redo02.log and redo03.log on location D:\test, but it is still giving errors
what could be the problem of this as it seems that RMAN can rename files that it get from backupset but unable to read redolog files on the given path. I'm using 11gR1.
Looking for reply

Dear user8812764,
Welcome to the OTN forums.
Please see the error explanations;
ORA-01511: error in renaming log/data files
Cause: An error occurred during the ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE command.
Action: Check the error stack for detailed error information.So now you need to check the accompanying error;
ORA-01516: nonexistent log file, datafile, or tempfile "string"
Cause: An attempt was made to use ALTER DATABASE to rename a log file, datafile, or tempfile; or to change attributes of a datafile or tempfile (e.g., resize, autoextend, online/offline, etc.); or to re-create a datafile. The attempt failed because the specified file is not known to the database's control file or is not of a type supported by the request.
Action: Specify the name or number of an existing file of the correct type, as appropriate. Check the relevant V$ table for a list of possible files.By the way why do you have different redolog for group 1?
SQL "ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE
''D:\test\redo01.log''
TO ''C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\redo01.log'' ";
SQL "ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE
''/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/redo02.log''
TO ''C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\redo02.log'' ";
SQL "ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE
''/u01/app/oracle/oradata/orcl/redo03.log''
TO ''C:\app\Administrator\oradata\orcl\redo03.log'' ";There should be really an inconsistency here with your redolog naming conventions.
Hope That Helps.
