Subject: clone creations fails with shared memory realm already exists

 



Ok I am confused.  I am trying to make a thin clone of our database from one server to another. Something I have done many times. I use NetApp Snap Manager for Oracle. Oracle EE 12.2.0.1 running on Oracle Linux 7.  The clone process is failing with ORA-27100: shared memory realm already exists.

 



This database does not currently exist. I ran a ps -ef | grep for my database name and no process are found.  There is nothing in /etc/oratab. I've tried adding an entry to make sure a database with that name is not running.  There is no pfile, spfile, password file.  I've checked /dev/shm for any files related to my database name and there is nothing. I don't understand by it thinks shared memory realm already exists.  



Any suggestions?

 



Thanks,



Jeff
