Folks,
I'm sure that someone on the list has done this in the past or at least
can
"see the forest through the trees". I've been a little too close to this
and
lost the perspective.
Anyhow, what we're trying to do is create two replica's of our
production
PeopleSoft database on a separate machine using the hot backup method
(otherwise
known as EMC TimeFinder). Now that's two HP 9000 and three instances of
Oracle.
It does not take a wizard to understand that there is going to be a SID
conflict somewhere. SIDs around here are two characters in place and range
from
'02' to '09' (Please don't ask why, it's a VERY long story).
We start out with Dudley:02 and want to end up copying that to
Schroeder:06
and Schroeder:05. BTW, the mount points are not the same so we have to not
only
change the database name, but the file paths too. We've figured out the
file
renaming part just fine & getting the SID changed. The problem comes with
recreating the control file. Oracle recommends using the 'create
controlfile
set database 06 resetlogs' which sets the sequence in V$log to 0, but leaves
us
with a database that is looking for an archive log that does not exist.
The sequence of events we're using is:
Anybody have an idea??? BTW: We're trying to do this as a complete scripted operation that the SA can just run.

OH, Also please include my companion in crime (listed in the address area)
