ORA-00297: must specify RECOVER DATAFILE LIST before RECOVER DATAFILE START
ORA-00297: must specify RECOVER DATAFILE LIST before RECOVER DATAFILE START
Cause: The RECOVER DATAFILE START command was issued, but no RECOVER DATAFILE LIST commands had been issued. This only happens when doing recovery with Recovery Manager, and is an internal error in Recovery Manager, because Recovery Manager should always issue RECOVER DATAFILE LIST before RECOVER DATAFILE START.
Action: Contact customer support
ORA-00296: maximum number of files (string) exceeded for RECOVER DATAFILE LIST
ORA-00296: maximum number of files (string) exceeded for RECOVER DATAFILE LIST
Cause: The RECOVER DATAFILE LIST command specified more datafiles than are allowed by the DB_FILES initialization parameter. This error occurs when doing recovery with Recovery Manager, and the instance has been started with a DB_FILES parameter specifying fewer datafiles than recovery manager needs to recover to satisfy the user’s RECOVER command.
Action: Re-start the instance with a higher value for DB_FILES.
ORA-00295: datafile/tempfile number string is invalid, must be between 1 and string

Action: Specify a valid datafile or tempfile number and retry the operation
ORA-00294: invalid archivelog format specifier ‘string’
ORA-00294: invalid archivelog format specifier ‘string’
Cause: An invalid format specifier was found in the LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT initialization parameter. The only characters permitted following the % symbol are s, S, t, and T.
Action: Correct the initialization file and re-start the instance.
ORA-00293: control file out of sync with redo log
ORA-00293: control file out of sync with redo log
Cause: The redo log file and control file are out of sync because a non-current controle file was specified when the instance was started.
Action: Retry the RECOVER command using the current control file, or retry the RECOVER command using the USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE clause.
ORA-00292: parallel recovery feature not installed
ORA-00292: parallel recovery feature not installed
Cause: A parallel recovery was requested when the parallel recovery option is not installed.
Action: Delete the PARALLEL clause from the RECOVER command. Also, delete the RECOVERY_PARALLELISM parameter in the initialization file.
ORA-00291: numeric value required for PARALLEL option
ORA-00291: numeric value required for PARALLEL option
Cause: A recovery command was specified incorrectly. The PARALLEL option must be followed by a numeric argument that specifies the degree of parallelism.
Action: Re-enter the command with a numeric argument specifying the degree of parallelism desired.
ORA-00290: operating system archival error occurred. See error below
ORA-00290: operating system archival error occurred. See error below
Cause: While attempting to archive to a redo log file, the server encountered an unexpected operating system error.
Action: Correct the operating system error given in the messages and retry the operation. See also your operating system-specific Oracle documentation.
ORA-00289: suggestion : string
ORA-00289: suggestion : string
Cause: This message reports the next redo log filename that is needed, according to the initialization parameters LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST and LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT. This message assumes that LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST and LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT are the same now as when the required redo log file was archived.
Action: Consider using this filename for the next log needed for recovery.
