Hello,
When we upgraded our database from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.2, we have discoverd that Oracle is not honoring symbolic links--the symbolic links get overwritten directly when there is a media failure, datafiles missing or deleted.
In our environment, we use symbolic links under /oracle/data/SID/dbf to point to /packages/data/dbf ....
Have you encountered this problem and found a simple workaround? We are opening a case with Oracle.
thanks,
