WARNING: db_create_file_dest is same as db_recovery_file_dest

[sisrahul]

Hi ,
I am getting above warning in database event & message log file "alert_bgw.log" at the path given to "background_dump_dest" .

However db_create_file_dest and db_recovery_file_dest is indeed not the same. Looking in the alert_bgw.log during a startup, this is displayed:
db_create_file_dest = /var/opt/mediation/ora//oradata
db_recovery_file_dest = /var/opt/mediation/ora//flash_recovery_area

I am using Oracle 10.1.0.3 on Solaris.
any idea why this warning is coming into log file will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Rahul

Hi Ebrian,
Thanks for reply.
Yes I have never been seen this is in Oracle 10.2.
Anyways Do you have any idea why this warning comes in 10.1.0.3 ?

Ebrian,
Can you please let me know the source where can I find more about this bug.
Even after a lot of googling I could not find out anything related to this bug#.

You'll have to review Metalink for reference to the bug. However, the report essentially indicates that the error message can be ignored.
