Ashoke,
As far as I know, 1) YES
2) depends on your version of Unix.
3) Don't use Windows as a server platform.

What are the restriction in naming an Oracle SID/Database?
1. Can I have special character in SID/Database name? e.g. Is a SID name 'emp_prod'
is allowed?
2. What is the maximum size of a SID/Database name in Unix?
3. What is the maximum size of a SID/Database name in Windows?
4. Is there any other restrictions?
Thanks,
Ashoke
