Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> What is the file hc_<sid>.dat used for?
I noticed that when you create a new database, that there is a file
that is located in the $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory (where the init.ora
is usually located) that is named "hc_<db_name>.dat"
On my system (Solaris 2.9) it is 1552 bytes and if you cat the file you get:
DO NOT DELETE OR OVERWRITE THIS FILE!!!
