Oracle database file migration script

I recently had a project to migrate datafiles to our new san array, and part of that project I wanted to split apart each of the databases to their own mount points to allow mirror splits to be easier for quick backups. To perform this I pretty much had two options to move all the datafiles (60-70 total/database). I could dump the controlfile to trace, make the modifications then recreate the controlfile or I would have to move the datafiles on the os and perform alter database statements.

I wanted to just go the route of recreating the controlfile because it would have been easier to do mass edits of one file but these particular databases were not registered to an rman catalog, and I did not want to lose backup history even though these were just test environments cloned on a regular basis.

So, the choice I had left was to move files and do the alter databases. After doing a bit of cursory searching I didn't find any scripts to generate the statements for me, so I put together a driver script that made all the necessary steps. Hopefully this will save someone time in the future with a script to start from. This was done against 10gR2.

Some assumptions:

  • The datafile locations assume ofa compliant structure "/uxx/oradata/SID/"
  • For the driver script being created the destination will be all the same, you can change this after the script has been generated.
  • You need to change the source and destination.
