DBCA can be used to create databases on raw devices in 9i RAC Release 1 and 9i Release 2. Standard database creation scripts using SQL commands will work with file system and raw. DBCA cannot be used to create databases on file systems on Oracle 9i Release 1. The user can choose to set up a database on raw devices, and have DBCA output a script. The script can then be modified to use cluster file systems instead. With Oracle 9i RAC Release 2 (Oracle 9.2), DBCA can be used to create databases on a cluster filesystem. If the ORACLE_HOME is stored on the cluster filesystem, the tool will work directly. If ORACLE_HOME is on local drives on each system, and the customer wishes to place database files onto a cluster file system, they must invoke DBCA as follows: dbca -datafileDestination /oradata where /oradata is on the CFS filesystem. See 9iR2 README and bug 2300874 for more info.
