Moving/Renaming Of Datafiles In Oracle

Moving/Renaming Of Datafiles In Oracle

Example:

/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9 (actual location)
/home/oracle/databases/ora9 (changed location)

SQL> select tablespace_name, substr(file_name,1,70) from dba_data_files;

TABLESPACE_NAME                SUBSTR(FILE_NAME,1,70)
------------------------------ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
SYSTEM                         /home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/system.dbf
UNDO                           /home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/undo.dbf
DATA                           /home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/data.dbf

SQL> select member from v$logfile;

MEMBER
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/redo1.ora
/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/redo2.ora
/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/redo3.ora

SQL> select name from v$controlfile;

NAME
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/ctl_1.ora
/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/ctl_2.ora
/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/ctl_3.ora

Now, the database can be shut down:

SQL> shutdown immediate;

The files can be copied to their destination:
$ cp /home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/system.dbf  /home/oracle/databases/ora9/system.dbf
$ cp /home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/undo.dbf    /home/oracle/databases/ora9/undo.dbf
$ cp /home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/data.dbf    /home/oracle/databases/ora9/data.dbf

SQL> startup mount;

SQL> alter database rename file '/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/system.dbf' to '/home/oracle/databases/ora9/system.dbf';
SQL> alter database rename file '/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/undo.dbf'   to '/home/oracle/databases/ora9/undo.dbf';
SQL> alter database rename file '/home/oracle/OraHome1/databases/ora9/data.dbf'   to '/home/oracle/databases/ora9/data.dbf';

SQL> shutdown immediate;

SQL> shutdown mount;

SQL> alter database open;
