just in case this doesn't fix the dbase id thing: there is a command line = tool to give a database a new db id.=20
rman's duplicate does it without furhter tweaks. check it out in = Metalink.=20
Don't forget - just in case when you happen to have changed the pathes on = the new machine- to use init ora params saying where the new datafiles = are.=20
it's an easy task, at least easier than stating all the new localtions on = the rman command line.
remember you need some archive logs too - if the instances runs in archive = mode.=20
remember to set date format string apropriately and duplicate until = <point-of-time>
good luck - but actually you don't take chances. kr MReger

If you use the the cloning tool known as "cp" or "scp", if the clone needs to be on another node,=20 you can get the desired result with a FS-based database. The DBID problem is solved by opening the database with the "RESETLOGS" option. Once you issue "alter database open resetlogs" command, your old=20 DBID is gone and, technically speaking, you have a new database.
