Oracle db file & redo archive file relocate question

Hi,

I am try to move Oracle database directory and REDO archive log directory into a new disk (Mirrored), my plan is:

1. Shutdown Oracle (8.0.5) & bring system (Unix Solaris 7) into Single user mode.
2. Rename(Move) the database dir "xxxxdb" & REDO Archive dir "archive" as "xxxxdb.old" & "archive.old", recreate those two dirs (mount points)
3. Mount the new hard disk partition under the two mount points, i.e. $ORACLEHOME/xxxxdb and $ORACLEHOME/archive
4. Copy files from the ".old" dir into the new dir, i.e "xxxxdb" & "archive"
5. Restart the system (init 6) (bring up the Oracle)

My question is: will this plan work? or do I need change Oracle configuration files as well (or other changes)? E.g files under "admin" dir.

Your help will be great appreciated.

Thanks lot
