Database Administration (MOSC)

I am trying to move datafiles to another drive on Oracle 19c Windows

I tried to perform ALTER DATABASE MOVE DATAFILE 'old location' TO 'new location'; and recieved the following error:

ERROR at line 1:ORA-01276: Cannot add file. File has an Oracle Managed Files file name.

I am assuming it has something to do with OMF. What is the preferred method for doing this, preferably ONLINE but can do OFFLINE as well. Also need to move redo and control files.

Howdy, Stranger!
