Hi,
I am in process of cloning using RMAN DUPLICATE
Here is what i have done so far
on the prod server
RMAN>list backupset of database;
this gave me the scn number to use for restore.
RMAN>list backupset of archivelog from scn <scn from above>
confirmed that the backup piece exits under the backup folder

Now on the TEST box
started DB in nomount
RMAN> run {set until scn <scn from above>
allocate channel ch1 type disk;
allocate auxiliary channel ch2 type disk;
duplicate target database to TEST
}

exit;

After this script runs, i see following error messages in
the log

RA-19870: error reading backup piece /b02/backup/oppa/l0k5nbhq_1_1
ORA-19505: failed to identify file "/b02/backup/oppa/l0k5nbhq_1_1"
ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status
Linux-x86_64 Error: 2: No such file or directory

the backup piece its tryig to read is not present in the
backup folder on the prod bax. Also the backup piece its
trying to read is totally different than the backup piece asoociated with the SCN.

Please help

Hello,

just a simple thing to verify first :

your backup directory /b02/backup/oppa needs to be copied on the test server so rman could see it with the same path as when backup was done....!

Hope this helps,

best regards,

Louis

Hi,

The error because RMAN not able to find out the expexted backup at the server.

The steps should be:-
=========================
1. Copy the backup sets to the server where you want to clone/Duplicate
2. if the filesystem structure is different from the Source server then create softlinks for the same.

Thanks for you reply Raj and Loius,
that was the issue.
We reolved the issue by creating softlink from prod to test
