B Correct answer
Explanation

The correct sequence begins with SET NEWNAME to specify the new location, followed by RESTORE to recover the datafile to that location. The SWITCH DATAFILE command then updates the control file to reflect the new location. This order ensures proper restoration and control file updates when moving a datafile during recovery.
