I used the search feature but didn't find a solution.
I clone a production instance on a weekly basis for the developers to have a production-test environment.
The initSID.ora on Dev (target)
db_file_name_convert=('/u01/oradata/SIDp/','/u01/oradata/SIDd/',
'/u02/oradata/SIDp/','/u02/oradata/SIDd/',
'/u03/oradata/SIDp/','/u04/oradata/SIDd',
'/u04/oradata/SIDp/','/u03/oradata/SIDd/',
'/u05/oradata/SIDp/','/u05/oradata/SIDd/',
'/u11/oradata/SIDp/','/u11/oradata/SIDd/')
Due to space constraints on the dev mountpoing /u03, what I tried to do was:
db_file_name_convert=('/u01/oradata/SIDp/','/u01/oradata/SIDd/',
'/u02/oradata/SIDp/','/u02/oradata/SIDd/',
'/u03/oradata/SIDp/filea.dbf','/u03/oradata/SIDd/filea.dbf',
'/u03/oradata/SIDp/fileb.dbf','/u03/oradata/SIDd/fileb.dbf',
'/u03/oradata/SIDp/filec.dbf','/u04/oradata/SIDd/filec.dbf',
'/u03/oradata/SIDp/filed.dbf','/u04/oradata/SIDd/filed.dbf',
'/u04/oradata/SIDp/','/u04/oradata/SIDd/',
'/u05/oradata/SIDp/','/u05/oradata/SIDd/',
'/u11/oradata/SIDp/','/u11/oradata/SIDd/')
That is - specify selected files that reside in the /u03 mountpoint on the PRD instance to restore to the /u04 mountpoint on the dev system.
Doing so got these errors
RMAN-05001: auxiliary filename /u03/oradata/SIDp/filea.dbf conflicts with a file used by the target database
RMAN-05001: auxiliary filename /u03/oradata/SIDp/fileb.dbf conflicts with a file used by the target database
RMAN-05001: auxiliary filename /u03/oradata/SIDp/filec.dbf conflicts with a file used by the target database
RMAN-05001: auxiliary filename /u03/oradata/SIDp/filed.dbf conflicts with a file used by the target database
I worked around it by using soft links to link the existing files to the /u04 mountpoint and cloned the system using the original initSID.ora.
The manuals never specified that we couldn't do the above.
Can we not?

I don't think it is possible.i never tried it before.
you should make free space on /u03 mountpoint.

Taj, apologies for not supplying sufficient information.
Short of adding additional disks (which is not do able at present and may not be possible due to box size) the dev box is at max space available.
If I could get the db_file_name_convert parm to work, I could "sprinkle" the files around and at sometime in the future easily bring them back to /u03.
This is a scripted clone and I'm trying to not have to use the set newname command.
