Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Easy way to copy databases when using RMAN?
I do use this command, but I still have had to use the NID utility. I will
be duplicating my production database again in a couple of days and I will
check the outcome.

If you use the RMAN duplicate database command, the DBID will be changed.

My experience has been that you have to run the NID utiltiy to change the DBID.

Hi Wolfson,
9i RMAN can help you to clone the database using duplicate target database. It will take care of resetting the DBID too. Not sure this is what you are looking for. I have used a couple of times and it worked fine.
Best Regards
Sriram Kumar

Thanks for info Ken.
Any idea on my original RMAN clones?

The Oracle 8i install on Solaris does hard code some of the
os path's into
some of the binaries (particularly java related ones) and
the database will
work fine assuming everything is soft linked properly until
you need to
apply a patch or upgrade the system. T universal installer
had issues even
though the orainventory was identical to the other server.
I had to install
the software and only then I could apply patches. I haven't
tried this with
9i but IMHO I'd avoid it. I hear 10g will allow cloning of
an installation
onto the grid.

I don't need RMAN, client is insisting on it.
I thought the "RESETLOGS" just reset the redo counter.
I'd swear we did that with another database and RMAN got all
confused about what DBID the archives belonged to.
And now that you mentioned it Mladen, can I take my
9i install, tar
it up and copy it to another server? Apply some soft links
and do a relink
all instead of multiple installs?
This particular client has all SUN servers.
Thanks
Larry

Actually, why do you need rman? If you use the the cloning tool
known as "cp" or "scp", if the clone needs to be on another node,
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
DBID is gone and, technically speaking, you have a new database.
