without any problems.
And a single file is the best in terms of database mobility. The
secondary file support was originally developed when RAID system hadn't
really been developed and when the notion of a multi-terabyte disk
volume was a dream. Though it works, is has some issues which affect
database maintenance tasks and general mobility.
