While upgrading, v$recover_file is having entries

Question

Hi All,
Oracle version 9.2.0.4
upgrading to 10.2.0.4
Os : HP-UX 11.11
Am trying to upgrade from 9i to 10g, and gone through Complete checklist...there i have seen
"v$recover_file should return no rows"
But in my database v$recover_file is having some datafiles like
>
14:13:00 SQL> select * from v$recover_file;
FILE#ONLINE ONLINE_ERROR CHANGE#TIME
6OFFLINEOFFLINEFILE MISSING 0
7OFFLINEOFFLINEFILE MISSING 0
8OFFLINEOFFLINEFILE MISSING 0
10OFFLINEOFFLINEFILE MISSING 0
11OFFLINEOFFLINEFILE MISSING 0
>
these are old datafiles ...
for the same tablespaces ...now we are having another datafiles which are active.
So please suggest me will this impact the upgrade process in any manner ..?
and advice me better way to overcome this...
Thanks in Adavance
