ORA-00213: cannot reuse control file; old file size string, string required
What triggered the Error:
To reuse a control file, it must be the same size as the one previously used.What should we do to fix it:
Either do not specify REUSE, or specify a matching combination of MAXDATAFILES, MAXLOGFILES, MAXLOGMEMBERS, MAXLOGHISTORY, and MAXINSTANCES clauses in the CREATE DATABASE or CREATE CONTROLFILE statement.
