<SPAN

<SPAN
class=643433715-30112001>
<SPAN
class=643433715-30112001>Here are my rough instructions for how to duplicate
a database (by copying files) and then how to alter the database name
(typically referred to as "cloning" a database).
<SPAN
class=643433715-30112001>
At
the end, you will find how to alter the dbid so that RMAN will see it as a
new database.
<SPAN
class=643433715-30112001>
Be
sure to bounce the instance as instructed.
