Oracle DB Error ORA-01673 data file string has not been identified

The following is the cause of this error:

This datafile was not in the control file after an incomplete recovery or CREATE CONTROLFILE. Since information from its header is needed for standby database recovery, we cannot create a standby control file.

Action you can take to resolve this issue: Find the file and bring it online. If desired it may be taken offline again. If you intend to drop this file, then taking it offline with the DROP option will avoid this error.
