| ERROR | test recovery not allowed when recovering to new incarnation |
| CAUSE | Either a new incarnation was set using RMANs RESET DATABASE command for a control file that was CURRENT, or the control file is from a prior incarnation. As recovery to a new incarnation requires changing the control file, test recovery is not allowed. |
| ACTION | Perform actual recovery or RESET DATABASE to incarnation that was last opened using the control file to do test recovery. |
