Here's my 2¢ worth...I use 'cp -p' instead of 'mv'. If something blows in the copy I still have the original. It all is OK then I 'rm -f' the file after on-lining it.

Cheers,
Paranoid Mike

Here's a UNIX example:

set pause off echo on termout on feedback on whenever sqlerror exit

alter tablespace YOUR_TS offline normal;

!mv /u01/oradata/SID/YOUR_TS_01.dbf /u02/oradata/SID/YOUR_TS_01.dbf

alter tablespace YOUR_TS rename datafile '/u01/oradata/SID/YOUR_TS_01.dbf'
to '/u02/oradata/SID/YOUR_TS_01.dbf';

alter tablespace YOUR_TS online;

HTH,
John

which command do I use to move an oracle datafile from one filesystem to another filesystem? I understand the db is to be up in restrict mode.

TIA
