Why does RMAN require a (non existing) online redo log while the associated archivelog is available?

 I am doing some disaster recovery tests. In the present scenario I have a full backup of the original database (rac with 2 nodes) and the two archivelogs created during the backup (one from each node). Then I copied the backup, the controlfile and the archivelogs to my test system (no cluster) with similar directory structure as the original system and restored the full backup to a single instance database. However, as soon as I try to recover the database rman requires the online redolog of the backup period which does not exist on my test system. Therefore RMAN stops

Howdy, Stranger!
