Re: How do I move datafiles?

Hi Terry,

There is a small correction in Sajnish's Step#2. Instead COPY, you have to MOVE the data file to the target location. If you copy, the old version of the datafile will be still there in the previous location. I mean, we are duplicating that file. So that, remove the copied version, and move the original file to the new directory. Then give it a try.
