If your data has been cleanly shutdown,
AND ALL the files are copied to a new system (including control files, redo logfiles,etc) AND into the same folders
AND using "binary mode" copy,
then you should be able to simply
start up this "cloned" database,
because it won't know or care that it
now resides on a different box.
