For example,

orclz>
orclz> alter tablespace jw add datafile 'DATADG' size 1m;

Tablespace altered.

orclz> select name from v$datafile where name like '%DATADG%';

NAME
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C:\APP\ORACLE\PRODUCT\19.3.0\DATABASE\DATADG

orclz>

Never mind your question, what does this tell you about problem solving skills?

The datafile 'DATADG' gets added as it was mentioned in alter tablespace command.

You missed the point when John said "Never mind your question, what does this tell you about problem solving skills?"

Did you notice that your question was about ASM and John's demo was not on ASM?

What did John do to answer your question?
What could you have done to answer your own question?
