Re: Copy cold backup to another DB

Carlos:
If the test database and the production database are in different hosts you can restore the cold backup on the host for test and you have a database identical to production for testing. The sid is the same on both hosts and you have to configure the tnsnames properly to access to them.
If the databases are in the same host you will need to recreate the instance and import. This can be easy made if your database is not very big.
