Is it possible to specify the order in which datafiles are restored?

Hi there,

I'm running Oracle database 11.2.0.4 and am in the process of migrating to a new server (I'll then be upgrading to 19c)

To migrate, I am running an rman backup, shipping the files and restoring on the new server.

The DB is large (3TB) and contains a 1TB large file tablespace and thus one massive datafile

I have a problem when restoring.....The large datafile is the last to start restoring and therefore restores on its own while all the other channels sit and do nothing. I need it to start restoring first so that it finishes quicker. While it's restoring, the other channels can work on the smaller datafiles

Howdy, Stranger!
