Why don't you just use the create database command to make a small test =
database. There is no reason to do anything with a copy of your production =
database if you are not bringing any data or tablespaces over.

I have a LARGE data warehouse instance.
It is much too large to clone onto my test system.
My goal for this posting & project is to be able to a couple of "practice" Oracle upgrades against this instance on my test system, before I do it for real.
I want to take just the SYSTEM tablespace and associated=20 control files onto the test system. I'm hoping to be able to DROP all other tablespaces leaving only the SYSTEM tablespace and to get Oracle to OPEN the instance. Then I'll do a clean shutdown & apply the upgrade.
