Re: Trace file does not reside in user_dump_dest. Why ?

[CHAN Chor Ling Catherine (CSC)]

Hi,

I forget to mention that when I show parameter dest* in server manager , the
user_dump_dest is pointing to the right directory
/dg1/oracle/niecomn/admin/udump.

My earlier email :
                I issue the command "alter database backup controlfile to
trace", expecting my trace file to reside in the user_dump_dest directory. 

                connect / as sysdba;
                startup pfile=/dg1/oracle/nieora/8.1.6/dbs/initNIE.ora

                In the startup file,
                   User_dump_dest = /dg1/oracle/niecomn/admin/udump

                However, the trace file resides in another directory
/dg1/oracle/nieora/8.1.6/rdbms/log.

                I am very... very puzzled. Could the gurus explain this
phenomenon ? Thanks.

Regds,
New Bee
