Minimum Files to Clone a Database

I am helping a DBA clone an Oracle 8i database using disk "snapshots".
He would like to use the more expensive disk snapshot hardware for
just the data files. The rest (indexes, redo, rbs, etc.) will be on
local disks. The split of the data will be done in hot backup mode.
I'm thinking he will need a control file listing and archive logs to
create the clone, but will he be able to rebuild the index files?



Thanks!
