Sorry I am not a big fan of DBCA and especially for RAC but I believe that oracle just starts with 1, 2, 3, etc concatenating that onto the name you select.

I forget exactly what the problem is but recommendation is to stick to 5 characters or less for base name for RAC db. Received on Tue Aug 23 2005 - 11:34:48 CDT
