Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: How to change the value of MAXDATAFILES of a running instance ?
I'm surprised that nobody else has answered this one yet, so I'll go ahead
and post.
You need to recreate the controlfile. Do the good old ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE; Up the parameter in the script this generates, and recreate the controlfile. Of course, you will need to take down your database to do this.
