Can there be more than one database in an oracle 9i server?

I can create a database while installing the Oracle server and call it 'A'. After some time i would like to create another database called 'B'. How do i create 'B' ? How does the instance for the second database start?

Hi,

The maximum number of datafiles are defined at database creation time. Lookup the "CREATE DATABASE" command in the SQL Reference guide for details.

CREATE DATABASE ... MAXDATAFILES 1000 ...


Also, the number of datafiles accessible to your instance is limited by the INIT.ORA/SPFILE parameter DB_FILES. This is documented in the Oracle Server Reference Guide.

Best regards.
