NOTE: Database cloning was done with the same user.

I
Pre clone steps

Log in to database to which you need to clone and startup the database.

Command:
Sqlplus ‘/as sysdba’
Startup

Create a script to create controlfile.

Command:
Alter database backup controlfile to trace;
Cd /u01/oracle9i/admin/db01/
Cp db01_ora_24633.trc /u01/oracle9i/clonedb.sql

Edit clonedb.sql with option RESETLOGS as cloned database name is different from
original one.

Think of Database name

Oracle_Sid = clonedb

Create respective filesystem as same as previous one

Oracle9i

Admin Oradata

db01 clonedb db01 clonedb

bdump udump cdump bdump udump cdump

Command:
Mkdir clonedb
Mkdir bdump
Mkdir cdump
Mkdir udump

II
Copy all dbf files to cloned location

Command:
Cd /u01/oracle9i/oradata/db01/
Cp *.dbf /u01/oracle9i/oradata/clonedb/
See that all destinations of database files are changes in clonedb.sql script.

Create initialization parameter file

Go to ORACLE_HOME/dbs and create initclonedb.ora file.

Command:
Cp initdb01.ora initclonedb.ora
Vi initclonedb.ora
%s/db01/clonedb/g

Create Environmental file

Su – oracle9i
Vi clonedb.env
export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/oracle9i
export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product
export ORACLE_SID=clonedb
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
export
ORA_NLS33=$ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls/admin/data

umask 022

:wq--- save and quit


Now run the script using following command
. db02.env

Run Clonedb.sql script

Clonedb.sql located in ORACLE_BASE


CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE "CLONEDB"

Login as SYSDBA

Command:
Sqlplus ‘/as sysdba’

Startup the database in nomount mode

Command:
Startup nomount

Command:
@Clonedb.sql
Controlfile created.

SQL > ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;


Database altered.
SQL> ALTER TABLESPACE TEMP ADD TEMPFILE
