Oracle7 Server Getting Started for Windows NT

Additional Information:

When you run the EXP utility from

Windows NT workstations, the BUFFER parameter defaults to a
value of 4K, and the RECORDLENGTH parameter defaults to
2K. See Oracle7 Server Utilities for more information about EXP.

2.

Start Server Manager from the console and connect with your user
name and password:

C:\>SVRMGR73 [MODE=LINE]

3.

Shut down your Oracle7 Server for Windows NT using Database
Manager or the Server Manager SHUTDOWN command.

Additional Information:

For more information on using

Database Manager, or any of the Database Tools, see the online
Help included with your product.

4.

Make backup copies of all the database, redo, log, and control files if
the database contains important information.

Attention:

See the sections Setting the Archivelog Mode and

Recovering the Database and Backing Up the Database in this
chapter, and Oracle7 Server Administrator’s Guide for more
information.

5.

Delete all the database files (including data files, redo log files, and
control files) from the starter database:

SYS1ORCL.ORA

USR1ORCL.ORA

RBS1ORCL.ORA

TMP1ORCL.ORA

INITORCL.ORA

LOG1ORCL.ORA

LOG2ORCL.ORA

CTL1ORCL.ORA

If you are replacing the starter database, go to Step 8 now.

6.

If you have created a new instance, copy the sample initialization
parameter file

INITsid.ORA

to a new file named

INIT

sid.ORA

,

where sid is the new instance name.

7.

Using any text editor, modify the new

INIT

sid.ORA

file so that all

references to the CONTROL_FILES parameter reflect the new SID.

For example, if the new instance’s SID is ABC, replace
CTL1ORCL.ORA (in the INITABC.ORA) with CTL1ABC.ORA.
