RMAN-05114

datafile string name string is already used by datafile string

Cause

RMAN attempted to use the specified data file name as a restore destination for the indicated data file, but this data file name was already in use by the specified database. This can happen during pluggable database point-in-time recovery to recover a dropped tablespace whose data file name was already in use by a pluggable database.


Action

Add a SET NEWNAME command prior to the RESTORE or RECOVER command to specify the restore destination for this file.
