Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: .dbf is a valid name for a datafile name?
Alter tablespace is a better option wherby you can do it while database is
up and only that particular tablespace is offline. OEM does the same thing.
You can use it for any tablespace except SYSTEM tablespace which you cannot
put offline.
For 'Alter database' you need down time as database cannot be open and it is to be used to change any SYSTEM tbs datafile.
Both does the samething with different situations.

Raj,
That looks like it works also. Many ways to skin a cat. I personally have gotten used to using OEM and letting it issue the command.
I think they both would work.

Tom,
if he is going to have the tablespace off line with
database up and running , shouldn't the command be
alter tablespace rename file '< >' to '< >' ;
Cheers,
RS
