Second db on Oracle 8.0.4 Netware

[cyberdan]

Please can anyone help me. I'm facing the task of putting a second database next to a production database.

I'm familiar with this on a NT-platform, but not on a Novell-platform.

I am intending to:

Add a new SID name to the listener in LISTENER.ORA.

Setup a new service name in TNSNAMES.ORA that uses the IPC protocol.

Create a new parameter file in the ORACLE_HOME\DATABASE directory of the form initSID.ora.
making sure that the control_file parameter specifies a new control file name, and the db_name points to the newdatabase name.

Start Server Manager

LOAD SVRMGR

Connect as INTERNAL.

SVRMGR>CONNECT INTERNAL/<PASSWORD@service_name

Start up the database with the new instance:

SVRMGR>STARTUP PFILE=%ORACLE_HOME%DATABASE\INITSID.ORA

And then running the necesarry scripts.

If this is not the correct procedure, please help me.
I'd appreciate any help.

Thnx in advance.
