RE: Oracle and nfs mounted devices.

Thank you guys. I was finally able to create the tablespace on the mapped drive.

I do realize that placing datafiles on network devices is not the right thing and is not supported by oracle.

Thanks again for the help. You are the best!

Murali.

I firmly believe that placing database files across the network is one very bad idea indeed, however your problem most likely comes from the fact that Oracle service runs as local (Windows) system account and as such across the network it has exactly the level of rights it deserves - none whatsoever. If you set the Oracle service to run as recognized network user that have read/right permissions on mapped drive - it might work, but it would still be a bad-bad idea to go ahead and actually do so (teeny tiny network 'hick up', and find yourself practicing recovery scenarios).
