RMAN cloning in archive log mode

i have cloned the database SUNU in RAC2 machine to RAC1 Machine in the name DBDEMO.

RMAN> backup full database format '/home/u01/app/backup/%d_%U.bkp' plus archivelog format '/home/u01/app/backup/%d_%U.bkp';


[oracle@rac2 backup]$ pwd
/home/u01/app/backup
[oracle@rac2 backup]$ ls -ltr
total 516356
-rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall 2124800 May 15 19:37 SUNU_01mcdp74_1_1.bkp

-rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall 2560 May 15 19:37 SUNU_04mcdp8l_1_1.bkp
[oracle@rac2 backup]$



step 2:-
copy the initsunu.ora file to rac1 machine and also create a password file in rac1 machine for dbdemo database
add an entry in oratab file in rac1 machine
also move the backup files to rac1 machine to exact folder as it is in rac2(source) machine

note: make sure the folder is available in RAC1 machine
here we are taking backup in /home/u01/app/backup so now i am going to create a folder in RAC1 machine and also moving the backup from RAC2 to RAC1.
[oracle@rac2 backup]$ scp * oracle@192.168.1.1:/home/u01/app/backup/


or you can create a symbolic link for the backup location

example, in machine RAC1(the machine/host/server i dont have exact folder or exact mount point as it is in RAC2 machine(target)
do like this,

[oracle@rac2 dbs]$ cd /home/u01/app/backup/
[oracle@rac2 backup]$ pwd
/home/u01/app/backup
[oracle@rac2 backup]$ scp * oracle@192.168.1.1:/home/u01/app/test_bk/

and then create a symbolic link:
[oracle@rac1 app]$ ln -s /home/u01/app/test_bk /home/u01/app/backup

[oracle@rac1 app]$ ls
backup oracle test_bk
[oracle@rac1 app]$ cd backup/
[oracle@rac1 backup]$ ls -ltr
total 671932

-rw-r----- 1 oracle oinstall 7143424 May 22 12:38 SUNU_0fmcvepe_1_1.bkp
[oracle@rac1 backup]$

now we are going to copy the init files from RAC2 to RAC1 machine using scp , as shown below.
you can mention hostname or ipaddress in scp command

[oracle@rac2 dbs]$ scp initsunu.ora oracle@192.168.1.1:$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/
initsunu.ora 100% 1070 1.0KB/s 00:00
***********************************************************************
IN RAC1 MACHINE
***********************************************************************

i copied the initsunu.ora file to the RAC1 machine and now i am going to replace
the database name sunu by dbdemo
also,
adding the parameter log_file_name_convert and db_file_name_convert parameters to clone database with different directory structure.

*.sga_target=745537536


Now i am going to add an entry in the /etc/oratab file for dbdemo database

dbdemo:/home/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1:N


going to create required folders for the dbdemo database files

[oracle@rac1 dbdemo]$ pwd
/home/u01/app/oracle/admin/dbdemo

[oracle@rac1 dbdemo]$ ls
adump bdump cdump dpdump hdump pfile udump
[oracle@rac1 dbdemo]$

[oracle@rac1 oradata]$ pwd
/home/u01/app/oracle/oradata
[oracle@rac1 oradata]$ ls
dbdemo
[oracle@rac1 oradata]$


creating a pwd file for dbdemo database

[oracle@rac1 oradata]$ orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwdbdemo password=oracle
bash: orapwd: command not found
[oracle@rac1 oradata]$ . oraenv
ORACLE_SID = [orcl] ? dbdemo
[oracle@rac1 oradata]$ orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapwdbdemo password=oracle
[oracle@rac1 oradata]$

now i am going to start dbdemo database in nomount mode
and then do cloning

before that we should have add the tns entry of sunu database in RAC1 machine


[oracle@rac1 backup]$ cd /home/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/network/admin/
[oracle@rac1 admin]$ ls -ltr

add/check this entries available in both machines else add this entry in tnsnames.ora file of both machines.

we are checking connectivity b/n the two machines using tnsping command.

now all the pre cloning steps finished.

now we can start the cloning in RAC1 machine.
