To re-create a database, all existing database files should be reused. The following SQL statement is issued: CREATE DATABASE ABC DATAFILE '/u01/oradata/abc/system0l.dbf' SIZE 100M REUSE LOGFILE GROUP 1 ('/u01/oradata/abc/logla.rdo', '/u02/oradata/abc/loglb.rdo') SIZE 50K REUSE, GROUP 2 ('/u01/oradata/abc/log2a.rdo', '/u02/oradata/abc/log2b.rdo') SIZE 50K REUSE MAXLOGFILES 5 MAXLOGHISTORY 100 MAXDATAFILES 10; Why does the CREATE DATABASE statement fail?
