Jalil,
To do
this, do the following:
Shutdown the database
Move
the data file to the new location
Startup
MountIssue the "Alter
database"
commands
Alter database open.
Works like a charm.
Listen, if you are comfortable re-building your control
files, then go ahead and do it.
I'm not sure what effect it has if you are running in
archivelog mode - are your archived redo logs available for a restore? My
guess is not - that your SCN restarts at "1" again.
Sooo, whenever you do this, be sure and perform a full
backup!
hope this helps.

Subject: Re: What is the point to use "alter database rename file" command?
Well, I have recieved a server and found some datafiles
are reside in System tablespace - in this case to move
those datafile we can not put system tablespace offline
therefore can not use alter command...Regards,

database has to be shutdown.
using alter database rename file you can just take the tablespace that
owns that datafile offline and do the work. All users who don't need
that particular tablespace are not affected.
