You can ln .dbf name_you_wanted any time you like. Unlink
the .dbf basename whenever you're done with it.

RE: .dbf is a valid name for a datafile name?

2002-03-26 Thread Mercadante, Thomas F

Hamid,

.dbf is prefectly valid on all machines, as far as I know.

You can rename it - look at the ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE 'filename' to
'newfilename' clause to rename the data file.  You will need to take the
tablespace offline to do this.

Hope this helps

RE: .dbf is a valid name for a datafile name?

2002-03-26 Thread Boivin, Patrice J

In fact, here with Oracle 7.3 we had .dbf for data files, .ora for init.ora
file and other config files, and .trc for trace files, .log for log files,
etc.

With the GUI tools introduced with Oracle 8, the extensions were different
-- .ora for everything it seems to me, but I still prefer the different
extensions for the different file types.

Just my conservative opinion.

Maybe .dbf brings back memories of dBase III+ ?

RE: .dbf is a valid name for a datafile name?

2002-03-26 Thread Mohammad Rafiq

Create another temp1 tablespace not big. point your user temp tablespace to 
temp1. Offline your temp tablespace and do whatever you want. Once done 
point back the original temp tbs and drop temp1 tbs.
No system down time.

Tom,
if he is going to have the tablespace off line with
database up and running , shouldn't the command be
alter tablespace rename file ' ' to ' ' ;

Cheers,

  You can rename it - look at the ALTER DATABASE
  RENAME FILE 'filename' to
  'newfilename' clause to rename the data file.  You
  will need to take the
  tablespace offline to do this.
 
  Hope this helps

RE: .dbf is a valid name for a datafile name?

2002-03-26 Thread Mohammad Rafiq

Alter tablespace is a better option wherby you can do it while database is 
up and only that particular tablespace is offline. OEM does the same thing. 
You can use it for any tablespace except SYSTEM tablespace which you cannot 
put offline.

For 'Alter database' you need down time as database cannot be open and it is 
to be used to change any SYSTEM tbs datafile.

Both does the samething with different situations.

Rafiq

Raj,

That looks like it works also.  Many ways to skin a cat.  I personally have
gotten used to using OEM and letting it issue the command.

I think they both would work.
