Hi,

ORA-01207:  ORA-01207 file is more recent than controlfile - old controlfile

Cause: The control file change sequence number in the datafile is greater than the number in the control file. This implies that the wrong control file is being used. Note that repeatedly causing this error can make it stop happening without correcting the real problem. Every attempt to open the database will advance the control file change sequence number until it is great enough.

Action: Use the current control file or do BACKUP CONTROLFILE RECOVERY to make the control file current. Be sure to follow all restrictions on doing a BACKUP CONTROLFILE RECOVERY.

You must run the RECOVER command after restoring a backup control file, even if no datafiles have been restored.

You must open the database with the RESETLOGS option after performing either complete or point-in-time recovery with a backup control file.

Hope this helps.
