Once the System Administrator creates the raw partitions just use thier names
like filenames in the create tablespace statement
create tablespace dataspc
datafile '/dev/rw/tblspc_nm.dat' size 1024M;
Some sites like to create OS links to the raw partitions using a 'normal' file name and use the link name in the create/alter tablespace statements.
