    Unhappy Archived log files with extension.dbf?

    Hello,

    I recently created an Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 DB in Win2000 server, and after using patch, the DB upgraded to 9.2.0.4.0. I didn't change the archive log format during the creation, by default, the archived log file extension is .dbf instead of .arc. Do you have the same experiences? Does archive log with .dbf work as the same as those with .arc? Could I change them to .arc format?

    I didn't get 9i default archive log format information from any Oracle Doc. Please help.

    Thanks very much.

    Gary

    Here is the ref http://download-west.oracle.com/docs...htm#REFRN10089

    (I can't see that the extension makes any difference.)
