I am not a guru (as any one here can attest... <g> but

The last line tell you what the problem is
" O/S-Error: (OS 3) The system cannot find the path specified."

Oracle cant find the path, you probably need to pass it something like

\\server_name\d$\oracle\oradata\mmstest\test.dbf
providing the oracle on d is shared out

Hello Gurus:

I have been asked to create datafiles (create tablespace) on disk drives
that are mapped ( internal disk - attached to remote servers)

When I tried creating tablespace...I get  the following error message:


ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01119: error in creating database file
'd:\oracle\oradata\mmstest\test.dbf'
ORA-27040: skgfrcre: create error, unable to create file
OSD-04002: unable to open file
O/S-Error: (OS 3) The system cannot find the path specified.


My opinion is Oracle does not support this operation.

However I do not fully understand the internals of it...Is oracle not
able
to obtain locks on the device?

Please Help.

Thanks,
Murali.
