Hi there
in our production database,we have a tablespace called TESTDB and this tablespace has 2 DATAFILEs.
location for these 2 datafiles are

D:\ORADATA\TESTDB\TESTDB01.DBF
D:\ORADATA\TESTDB\TESTDB02.DBF

Recently i have added a new datafile for the tablespace TESTD,But when i specified the path
i put 'D:\ORADATA\TESTDB03.DBF' instead of 'D:\ORADATA\TESTDB\TESTDB03.DBF'
so i want to move this datafile to
D:\ORADATA\TESTDB would you guys please help me t resolve this...

i have an another doubt is there any problem with datafile location mismatch as mentioned above??

alter database rename file 'D:\ORADATA\TESTDB03.DBF' to 'D:\ORADATA\TESTDB\TESTDB03.DBF';

alter tablespace TESTDB online;


should take care of it.
