When using the standby as the target database and cloning to a dev database on another server do you have to take the standby out of recovery mode ?
Can you also clone across and use NOREDO
duplicate target database to DEV from active database noredo;

When I try action it fails after control file creation to restart auxiliary database with invalid username/password but it has already connected to auxiliary to start in nomount and copy control files.

confused

It would be very helpful if you would actually show us the full, complete, and exact set of rman commands that you are using and full, complete, and exact messages that are returned.

This,
Quote:

is not what happened. RMAN did not start the instance in nomount mode, you did that yourself before launching the DUPLICATE. Then RMAN discovered the problem awhen doing the re-start.
You need to to copy the password file from the target to the auxiliary.

Check these items:

Target has tnsnames entry to clone. Show us the tnsnames.ora entry for 'rep11g' from the machine hosting your "target" (source) database.

clone has static registration in it listener. Show us the output of 'lsnrctl status' on the machine hosting rep11g.

THe easiest solution might be to run the rman executable from the Oracle Home of the auxiliary, and connect to it with operating system authentication:

rman target sys/xxxxxxx@live11g auxiliary /
duplicate database....

By way of explanation ....
1) With DUPLICATE DATABASE .. FROM ACTIVE DATABASE , the target has to communicate directly with the aux, so you have to have tns connectivity between the two.

2) Because the aux is being shutdown and restarted (multiple times, as a matter of fact) it needs to be statically registered with the listener (SID_LIST ...)
