Move datafile one location to different location online in oracle 12c Version 12.1.0.2 and later




Move datafile one location to different location  online in  oracle 12c Version 12.1.0.2 and later:
==========================================================================================================


Login as sysdba 



to get the file id and datafile loation info using below query 
=========================================================================
select FILE_ID ,FILE_NAME,TABLESPACE_NAME from dba_data_files ;



In OMF (Oracle Managed file name feature)
=====================================================

Error  while move datafile in OMF : 


SQL> ALTER DATABASE MOVE DATAFILE '/oracle/oradata/data21/abcd_grlw8cvz_.dbf' to '/oracle/oradata/data22/abcd_grlw8cvz_.dbf';
ALTER DATABASE MOVE DATAFILE '/oracle/oradata/data1/abcd_grlw8cvz_.dbf' to '/oracle/oradata/data1/abcd_grlw8cvz_.dbf'
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01276: Cannot add file /oracle/oradata/data1/abcd_grlw8cvz_.dbf.  File has an Oracle Managed Files file name.

Solution
==============

Set db_create_file_dest before moving the datafile and do not specify the datafile name

SQL> alter session set db_create_file_dest='<DIR_NEW>';
SQL> alter database move datafile 21;




In Normal 
==================

alter database move datafile '/u01/oradata/test/test.dbf' to '/u02/oradata/test/test.dbf';
