Modify Oracle Directory: Step-by-Step Guide
The steps to modify an Oracle Directory are as follows:
- Connect to the Oracle database and log in with a user that has DBA privileges.
- To find existing directories, you can use the following SQL statement:
SELECT directory_name, directory_path FROM dba_directories; - To modify an existing directory, use the following statement:
ALTER DIRECTORY directory_name AS ‘new_directory_path’; - To create a new directory, you can use the following statement:
CREATE DIRECTORY new_directory_name AS ‘directory_path’; - After making changes or creating directories, you can use the following statement to confirm if the directory has been successfully modified or created:
SELECT directory_name, directory_path FROM dba_directories; - Finally, remember to save your changes and exit the database connection.
These are the steps to modify the Oracle Directory. Just choose the appropriate operation according to the specific situation.
