Renaming a 10g Database

632013Jul 2 2008 — edited Jan 15 2009
hi experts,

This is 10g on Windows 2003.

I have a really ugly database name that I would like to chnage to a more user meaningful name.

is the DBNEWID utility still the best option or does 10g offer a better way of renaming databases?

And do you do this with the db mounted or open?

Thanks, John
