Instance Name getting change on configuring Oracle Restart

User374733Mar 19 2013 — edited Mar 20 2013
Platform: RHEL 4u7 32-bit
ASM Instance: 11gR2
Database Instance: 10gR2
=================
SQL> sho parameter name

NAME TYPE VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
db_file_name_convert string
db_name string TEST
db_unique_name string TEST
global_names boolean FALSE
instance_name string DB10G
lock_name_space string
log_file_name_convert string
service_names string TEST
=================

I did a "software only" installation of Oracle Database 10gR2 and then manually create a simple database with "create database..." command on the machine where 11gR2 ASM Instance was running. Then following link:

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25494/restart002.htm#BABHHABA

I configured my single instance database 10gR2 with Oracle Restart functionality. The database successfully configured with Oracle Restart but what I observe is that instance name changed to "TEST" from "DB10G".

Can anyone of you please suggest me what could be the possible reason behind this. Thanks in advance.
