That's true only for Oracle 8i onwards. For Oracle 8.0.x still you would
need
to bounce the DB.
Here is an output from Oracle 8.0.5

No need to bounce the instance. You can dynamically chance the location
using ALTER SYSTEM command.

Nope. Create the new directory, change them in the file and bounce the
instance.

Do I have to rebuild the controlfiles if I change any of the dump
destinations
in my oracle init.ora files.
Thanks
