Ideas? I got ideas! I get ideas about the women on Andromeda all the time.
One point of logic that struck me was:

In order to make this work, I think you will also need to get the control
file and online redo logs from primary too. But then that means the primary
box must either be up, or you must be able to mount the primary 's disks to
the secondary. In the first case, your primary box isn 't down (!!). If the
database is down, then I 'd guess it 's because of a disk failure. In which
case, you probably don 't have fault tolerant storage (Egads!). In which
case, that should be your first priority. If the primary is down, but you
can still copy the files to the secondary, then you must be able to mount
the primary 's disks to the secondary. In which case, I would say: Don 't
copy the database to the secondary. Instead, mount the disks to the
secondary box, and start up the database there. And make damned sure nobody
attempts to start the primary box again until the database has been shutdown
on the secondary and the disks unmounted.
