I am aware of ways to recover a database through resetlogs. What if a large standby (or any recovery) must be recovered through the resetting of the primary's DBID, either using the DBNEWID (nid) utility, or other means? Can anyone think of a way to make the standby take on the correct DBID, short of patching datafile headers manually?

Running nid on the standby just creates a different DBID from the primary.
