Sonja, that is a very interesting question. I have tested the source/target scenario under Digital Unix. We did come across a command that allowed you to mount the devices with the same name on the same server with a mount /ignore(?). There may well be a ruse to rename the whole battle ship. It becomes very tricky when you wish to mount the target database and the reporting db on the same server. Already the database will have the same id as PROD unless you are going to rename it and all your physical files. So to mount it once is fine on the same server. You would IMHO save a lot of complexity by mounting it on another server. Yes I know its extra cost.... For a penny. Peter
-----Message d'origine----- De : Sonja Šehovic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Envoyé : mercredi 16 janvier 2002 16:57 A : Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Objet : Reporting database with Time Finder Hi! Oracle 8.1.7 on AIX, on EMC discs boxes which are synchronized with SRDF. At the target site, we have BCV volumes. We want to open reporting database on a daily basis. Now we can open target database with the same AIX volume group as the primary database. My question is do you have experience in renaming AIX volume group, so we can have two databases on the same machine (SRDF target and BCV)? We have some experience in doing that manually, but we're interested in having some scripts. Please help.
