Hi to all,
we are trying to create a tablespace using a raw device. The sysadm as created some raw devices (1Giga each) e.g. /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s4
And I have created with the oracle user some symbolic links to these devices in
/store0/oradata/PGV880

so, I see with an ls -la
lrwxrwxrwx 1 oracle dba 18 Nov 12 14:33 PGV880_data4_1000M.dbf ->
/dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s4

But if I try to use one of these files
create tablespace raw_tbs datafile
'/store0/oradata/PGV880/PGV880_data4_1000M.dbf' size 1000M;

I get

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01119: error in creating database file '/store0/oradata/PGV880/PGV880_Data4_1000M.dbf' ORA-27040: skgfrcre: create error, unable to create file SVR4 Error: 13: Permission denied

Can someone help us to understand what is wrong? Thanks,
