Hi,
Am I misreading all this, but should the auxiliary database be in existence before I can Clone to it?
I created the init.ora and all directories and started TEST3 in nomount. I created the password file and can connect to it with a connect string no problem.
Another point is. Did you mean that the auxilliary database is the database that needs to be cloned (source)?

John and Jack,
I guess I didn't read Jack's info closely enough, since he states that his auxiliary database is already started nomount. I wonder if the three separate connect statements are the issue? When I duplicate a database, I use the following commands from the OS:
>rman target internal/xxx_at_original catalog rman/xxx_at_rman1 auxiliary /
rman>@prod_to_test
rman>exit
My ORACLE_HOME and SID are set for the auxiliary database. I have started the auxiliary database NOMOUNT, which basically just starts the background processes. Password files are required for the remote login (this is on a different server). I don't use db_file_name_convert or log_file_name_convert, because I group the data files differently on this server (I don't have the exact same number of file systems as production). After I have RMAN started, I do the following:
run {
#set until time "to_date('01082002200000','mmddyyyyhh24miss')";
set until scn 316498395;
#set until logseq 1389 thread 1;
allocate auxiliary channel ch1 type disk;
set newname for datafile 1 to '/u03/oradata/BSCST/system01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 2 to '/u03/oradata/BSCST/rbs01.dbf';
... ...yadda yadda yadda... ...

I don't understand here how RMAN connects to auxilliary when Jack seems to
be saying that the database does not exist it all.
When I tested a duplicate database session I made the following notes which
indicated I need a remote_login_password file setting up. I assume you
didn't do this then Jack as the database was not created at this point in
time
Please correct me if I have misunderstood
John
My notes follow
+++++++++++++++++++
To allow this connection a remote_login_password file needs to be in place. This can be created running the orapwd command
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/orapwd file$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/ orapwSID password = xxxxxx entries=10
Then add the line remote_login_passwordfile=exclusive to the init.ora and
start the database in exclusive mode (using the initSID_excl.ora file in
the
pfile directory).
Ensure that this works by performing a sqlplus internal @tnsnames_alias
with
the correct password and ensuring that a connection has been made.
This needs to be set up on the target environment as well as on the auxillary server. Ensure that a connection can be made both locally and remotely
sqlplus internal/password_at_tnsnames_alias
