Re: Oracle-Managed Files - your views

I don't think that you were being cryptic, I think I didn't explain the problem properly.

Using DBCA, I couldn't find a way to specify the actual location of the control files, whilst still in the GUI, even in the storage screen, there was no way to change the default location.

I believe I could have edited the scripts and run them manually, but didn't feel like going that far.

Regards.
