Ok i've been battling with RMAN and veritas for a few weeks. My question to the guru out there.

while cloning(duplicate database) with rman, it requires a "alternate client restore" since its being cloned to a different server.

the veritas docs on veritas support says you HAVE to change the client_name in the bp.conf file to say what the original client_name that did the backup via RMAN.

I've tried the altnames ordeal with no luck I had to change the client_name in the bp.conf file on the "auxiliary" database server, my problem with that is while the restore is happening all backups are now saying they belong to a different server.

Anyone got a decent workaround?

thanks, joe

PS: 9.2.0.3, AIX, latest version of veritas.
