Recently I got a problem with one of the ORLs; like the title is suggesting, one of the ORL got corrupted (don’t ask how!) and below is what I did:
ORA-00354: corrupt redo log block header ORA-00353: log corruption near block 8741986 change 136264748341 time 09/06/2016 12:47:59 ORA-00312: online log 4 thread 1: '/u2000/oradata/DB/redo4a.log'
What I had in mind was to bounce the database in mount state and to drop the redo04a.log file and to re-create it. Something like this:
SQL> startup mount ORACLE instance started. Total System Global Area 3.2068E+10 bytes Fixed Size 2269072 bytes Variable Size 5905580144 bytes Database Buffers 2.6105E+10 bytes Redo Buffers 55242752 bytes Database mounted. SQL> alter database drop logfile group 4; alter database drop logfile group 4 * ERROR at line 1: ORA-00350: log 4 of instance DB (thread 1) needs to be archived ORA-00312: online log 4 thread 1: '/u2000/oradata/DB/redo4a.log'
…and the decision had to be taken:
SQL> alter database clear unarchived logfile group 4; Database altered. SQL> alter database drop logfile group 4; Database altered. SQL> alter database add logfile group 4 '/u2000/oradata/DB/redo4a.log' size 4G reuse; Database altered. SQL> alter database open; Database altered.

Hi,
Did you try to recover the “database until cancel”? If that’s successful, you can open your database with RESETLOGS option (this is going to clear your online redo logs, but it’s going also to change the database to a new incarnation!!!).
Cheers,
Marius
