Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Correlation? init.ora: db_files and controlfile: maxdatafiles
Question for Oracle 8.0.4 and Oracle 8.1.7.
We have a large DB with 238 files, and it is still growing. The init.ora parameter DB_FILES is set to 254. It is easy to increase it (set to 1024 and restart DB).
But in the controlfiles there is a parameter MAXDATAFILES, also set to 254.
Do I have to increase this also?
And how?
What is the correlation between db_files and MAXDATAFILES?
