Hi,
After taking backups of datafiles I ran the DBVERIFY utility from command promt to make sure that my backups are valid and consistent.

Following is my command
C:oracleora92bin>dbv.exe file=C:ORACLEORADATAHRDBUSERS02.DBF

I tried on backups too but I keep getting the following message
--------------------------------
DBVERIFY: Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production on Wed Dec 31 15:30:46 2003

Copyright (c) 1982, 2002, Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.

DBV-00103: Specified BLOCKSIZE (2048) differs from actual (8192)
---------------------------------

I created a database using DBCA and did not change any parameters but still I keep getting the same message.

Oracle documentation/ some other website

http://www.remote-dba.cc/teas_aegis_util14.htm

say the output needs to something completely different.

Please help

Thanks

Scott

Hi,

Try: dbv.exe file=C:ORACLEORADATAHRDBUSERS02.DBF BLOCKSIZE=8192

"BLOCKSIZE is required only if the file to be verified does not have a block size of 2 KB. If the file does not have block size of 2 KB and you do not specify BLOCKSIZE, you will receive the error DBV-00103."
- Chapter 12 of the Oracle9i Database Utilities Guide.

Best regards.

Frank

Hi Scott,

This is not a big issue. While you give dbv command , you must specify even this parameter blocksize=8192
Now this will give you output
ex :
> dbv file=e:oraclesampuser01.dbf blocksize=8192

this will surely work,
Bye.
