HELLO DBAs


Hello everyone,

 

Welcome to my blog! I'm Ravi Kiran, an Oracle Database Administrator. I have created this blog to share my knowledge of Oracle Database with fellow DBAs. In this blog, you will find valuable information about Oracle DB, Oracle Data Guard, Oracle RAC, and more. I encourage you to leave your comments and thoughts, and feel free to point out anything I may have missed. Let's come together and create an amazing DB community where we can support and learn from each other.

 

Thank you for visiting, and I look forward to our journey together.

 

Best regards,

Ravi Kiran

ORA-27046: file size is not a multiple of logical block size and SP2-0714: invalid combination of STARTUP options
