It is acceptable to have more than datafile for SYSTEM.  Technically, this
adds one more point of failure : "there's a higher probability of an
administrator mistakenly removing any 1 of 2 files than 1 of 1 file".

Hi Folks,

I just wanted to know , having a System Tablespace with 2 Datafiles..would
that overall be an good idea.

Cause the only way to get it back to one datafile would be to recreate the
database it self.

I have done this and its works...but really , has anyone tried using this as
an option or its just everyone believes system tablespace has to be on one
datafile.

Regards,
Sheldon.
