HOW TO RENAME DATAFILE IN ORACLE 10G- LINUX



Here will see how to rename a data file name. Please follow below steps.


FILE_NAME TABLESPACE_NAME MAXBYTES/1024/1024/1024
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------- -----------------------
/data/ORA/tpde_02.dbf  TPDE 20
/data/ORA/tpde_01.dbf  TPDE 10
/data2/ORA/tpde_01.dbf  TPDE 30
/data3/ORA/tpde_03.dbf  TPDE 20

Above, the both data files names are same. But they are in diff locations. Now will try to rename the data file to any other name. Which is in /data2/ORA/tpde_01.dbf location

Login server & cd to the datafile location.

connect to the database.

SQL> select name from v$database;

NAME
---------------------------
TPDE

2. First put the tablespace in offline mode. like below

SQL> ALTER TABLESPACE TPDE OFFLINE NORMAL;

Tablespace altered.

3. Then go to data file location & try to mv the data file with new name. like below.

varthhammr.print.com@/data2/ORA/: mv tpde_01.dbf tpde_04.dbf

varthhammr.print.com@/data2/ORA/: sqlplus / as sysdba

ORA-39014: One or more workers have prematurely exited.ORA-00018: maximum number of sessions exceeded

ERROR: I was Performing a full database import and during the import I faced the below error. ORA-39014: One or more workers have prematurely exited. ORA-39029: worker 6 with process name "DW07" prematurely terminated ORA-31672: Worker process DW07 died unexpectedly. Job "SYSTEM"."SYS_IMPORT_FULL_04" stopped due to fatal error at 00:59:40 ORA-39014: One or more workers have prematurely exited. SOLUTION:  Run the import with fewer parallel processes, like PARALLEL=2 instead of 8. I was able to run the import successfully. NOTE 1: This errors occurs when there are less session allocation in the database. check the session,process parameters and increase them accordingly. To avoid such errors again. NOTE 2 : Note: Increasing processes parameter increases the amount of shared memory that needs to be reserved & the OS must be configured to support the larger amount of shared memory. So here we first need to increase the Memory & SG
