I am running tru64, I have symbolic links for databases, plus in some cases for log files I am
using context-dependent symbolic link with no problems.

This was with 9.2.0.2/9.2.0.4.

Subject: Symbolic Links in Oracle9.2.0.1

Dear List Members,
=20

If I use symbolic links, create database stmt fails in oracle 9.2.0.1. If I
remove the soft links, create database stmt succeeds.

I am forced to remove symbolic links and use direct path for Logfiles, system file, tempfile and undofile etc. from the create database stmt. Does
it mean that the symbolic links are not permitted in Oracle 9.2.0.1 ? I have several 8.1.7.4 databases that use symbolic links. Do I need to change
them before upgrading to 9.2.0.1? =20

Please let me know if anyone has experienced the above problem.=20

I am on Sun Sparc Solaris 5.8
