How to map raw disk to Oracle data file

2007-12-24 22:18:00

I'm setting up a solaris and oracle cluster, but I've been hit by a
knowledge hole. In the oracle documentation, it says to may the raw disk
(like /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s0) to a file, like myname_system.dbf. It implied
there was something called an ascii aliases file, that I assume did some of
this mapping?

Basically, I think I understand conceptually what they're describing (like
the similarities between /dev/rdsk/c1t1d0s0 and /dev/dsk/c1t1d0s0 and
/oraclemount), but I don't know _how_ to do it. Has anyone done this
before, or can point me to the correct howto?

Thanks,
