Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Tru64 UNIX files: "lkDBNAME" & "sgadefSID.dbf"
If you try to run another instance of the same DB, it will look for this file and if it finds it, it will give you an error telling you that it is already running.
2) No answer for this.

>The permissions for each are "-rw-r-----" and is also owned by "oracle".
