Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Cloning Question
Scott - Let's see if I understand specifically what you did. You ran the
CREATE DATABASE script that was generated from your production system. Now,
since the datafile for rollback tablespace isn't there, Oracle will come up
without it. Once your new instance was up, then you did a DROP TABLESPACE on
the rollback tablespace, followed by a CREATE TABLESPACE. I've done that
scenario quite a few times on Oracle 8.1.6, just yesterday, as a matter of
fact (that was a temp tablespace). If those weren't your steps, then provide
more details.

I spent a long time trying to clone our production data warehouse into test, to refresh it. I do this frequently, as both a way to refresh test instances and to test the backups. After fighting through 2 bad backups, I finally got a good one. However, the problem I had was that the production rollback tablespace is larger than the disk on test.
My thought was that I could restore everything except the rollback tablespace, which is not the way I usually do it. I commented out the rollback_segments line in the init.ora and created a script that would create a new rollback tablespace and rollback segments, smaller than those in production. This didn't work, even though Oracle support said it should have. When I did the clone, the database would not open. I kept getting the following error:
ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [25012], [1], [2], [], [], [], [], []
Does anyone know what I was doing wrong? I can't figure it out, and Oracle support couldn't figure it out, either. I was able to get the database up by getting more disk added, so that there was enough space to restore the rollback tablespace file.
Thank you.
