Virtual 10g template question
10418Jul 2 2008 — edited Jul 8 2008We have rescently created a Linux 4.6 VM using the templates provided by Oracle. We have also created a Linux 4.6 / Oracle 10g VM using the templates as well. In our testing we have the img's local to the host machine vs putting the database files out on the SAN and have run into a situation where we need to grow the size of the database beyond what the origional size allocated by the templates.
Our question is how does one go about making the database img larger? We have found several postings about making the system.img file larger by using the dd command, but we are unsure if this is the right thing to do for the database img as well.
Has anyone increased the size of the database img as of yet?
