To all,
I had a vendor tell me yesterday, that it was a good idea to name all
of your database related files *.dbf, including control files. This
immediately set off a red flag as it violates OFA. Anyone doing this,
and if so what is your rationale?
The vendor said it made UNIX find commands easier.?!?
The vendor is a "reputable reinstaller of Oracle", but there were a
few other comments that made me question there knowledge.
A bit of background is that I just took a new role, and Oracle is
fairly new to the shop, and they have a large implementation. So they
had contracted the vendor to do the groundwork, before they hired me.
At this point it's a bit of an annoyance, as I'd like to just do my
own thing (well OFAs own thing) architecture wise, and not have to
deal with the 3rd party.
Thanks
jd
