warning: skipping datafile compromises tablespace string recoverability

Cause

SKIP INACCESSIBLE or SKIP OFFLINE option resulted in skipping data file during BACKUP. If the data file has in fact been lost and there is no backup, then the tablespace is no longer recoverable without ALL archived logs since data file creation. This may occur because the data file was deleted by an outside utility or the data file is made OFFLINE [DROP].


Action

If there is no backup of skipped data file and the tablespace has to be recoverable without ALL archived logs since data file creation, then you should make these data file available for backup.
