Hi Falgun,
Of course you can avoid the rebuild of physical standby database. Why are changing the incarnation? Let me guess: you are connecting to catalog. I have been refreshing databases in the ancient times of 9.2 without changing the incarnation. You don't connect to catalog and you don't register the newly minted UAT copy to catalog. Also, use SRDF or whatever tool your array offers. Regards
