Hi Naru,

Follow these steps to configure your need: 1) copy all files to the target server.
2) run oradim to create new instance on the target server

oradim -new -sid instance_name pfile=(type where the control file location) example:
oradim -new -sid v817 pfile=c:/oracle/admin/v817/pfile/init.ora 3) set environment variable oracle_sid=instance_name 4) run sqlplus /nolog

SQL>connect internal
SQL>startup

If the location of the database isn't the same, you must change it in control file.

HTH, Rudy Susanto
