Dear gurus !
I have inherited several OPS databases on both NT & Sun Solaris cluster. Although i have had some experience in basic ongoing maintenance of OPS , i have never went a "coast to coast" with it alone. The most problematic issue , as i currently see it , is raw devices. How do i manipulate raw devices on NT & Solaris ? (Commands , utilities etc.. - real hands on , technical stuff , not the theory ) How do i add / enlarge a data file residing on a raw device ? How should i backup this OPS DB ?
What should i do if i want to drop a tablespace , reclaim the space occupied by it's datafiles and then build another tablespace (with new datafiles) using this reclaimed space ?
Would U please also point me to some GOOD technical materials on the web . Thank U very much in advance !!!

Andrey.
