I believe that the "oradata" directory gets created at install time at the ORACLE_HOME directory level.

Excellent! Coming from you, it's worth *tons*. I'm glad you replied, Cary, and I'm glad to finally see the de facto OFA paper.

Now I just need to figure out where I've seen the "oradata" directory slapped under ORACLE_BASE or ORACLE_HOME.

Thanks!
Rich

I would agree that .log is a dangerous extension for files that you want *not* to get picked off by some SA's "find" command for deletion.

And the OFA spec definitely does NOT put data files beneath ORACLE_BASE or ORACLE_HOME (http://www.hotsos.com/e-library/abstract.php?id=19).

So I agree with you on both accounts.

For what it's worth.
