How to Clone a Database in Linux

Hi,
How can I clone my production database (on Linux Redhat) to another host running on Linux Redhat?
Thanks,

By searching this forum, preferably before asking this question yet again.
I agree this includes some effort on your part.
Here is one solution, which I retrieved by doing what you refused to do:

The procedure is basically platform independent.

  • How to create a database on linux

    Good day friends Oracle forum, I started with Linux and have installed on a linux server with the Oracle 10g installation wizard, now my question is how I believe the database in windows did so through the wizard and configure all linux data but do not know how Algueña can help me with this step.
    Very grateful

    Hi,
    Have you able to run DBCA successfully?
    If not kindly post the LINUX version in which your have installed oracle and also confirm that you did not got any error during your installation. It seems that you have missing prerequisite rpm.

    When the Database is Online (Up and Running).

    Its a testing scenario.
    In one of the interview I had faced this quesiton.
    Kindly, any one guide me in this regard,
    Thanks,

    This is a documentation forum.
    You need to read that documentation.
    Specifically, go to http://docs.oracle.com, select the version of the database you are working with, and put 'clone' into the search box. One link for 10gR2 is http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/startup.htm#sthref1874
    IN the future, please have the courtesy to
    1) post in an appropriate forum, as described by the title of the forum
    2) Include product (database) version and operating system

    How shoud I start. Please assist me.As endian formats are different for Solaris 8 and Redhat (solaris has big, but linux has little), then the easiest way is to use exp/imp utiltiy for migration data.
    exp full database from 8i and import it in 10g. You can exp only particular schemas, it really depends, what kind of data you need, how much data You need to import and so on. But exp/imp is the answer how to get data into new database.
    Check metalink note 733205.1.

  • How to create a clone of database from STANDBY?

    How can i clone a database from physical standby database?

    Steps to clone from standby:
    1. cancle the managed recovery process on standby
    sql>alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
    2. Remember your standby databse would be in mount mode.
    3. Connect to the auxiliary instance and to the standby database through RMAN
    rman target sys/<pwd>@standby auxiliary sys/<pwd>@auxiliary-connection
    4. If 11g, then run directly duplicate from active database
    rman>duplicate target database to 'auxiliary_db_name' from active database nofilenamecheck;
    5. Once, the duplication is done, start the MRP on the standby again
    sql>alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session;
    Ok..You are on 10g.
    Perform the above steps, but only thing is 1st you need to take the backup of the standby database first.

  • How to create a database for sample code from Tutorial/Book?

    I want to try out the sample code from [http://shop.oreilly.com/product/0636920013471.do] for the book SQL Pocket Guide 3rd Ed.
    I have downloaded the oracle vm/appliance for oracle 11g2 and I have started sqlplus as sysdba.
    I'm feeling overwhelmed with these links describing how to create a database:
    [http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/admin/creatingdbmanually.html]
    [http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Oracle-7-HOWTO-3.html]
    [http://www.adp-gmbh.ch/ora/admin/creatingdbmanually.html]
    (1) What is the command to list the existing databases?
    (2) What is the command to delete an existing database?
    (3) When creating a new database with the create database command, is it necessary to specify the logfile, character set, national character set, datafile, sysaux datafile, undo tablespace, temp table space? Do these have reasonable defaults? I'm not sure what proper directories are to specify for Linux and the examples are for windows.
    Can someone give me a simplified create database command to create a database called 3rdEdPocketGuide? Should I follow the example at [http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Oracle-7-HOWTO-3.html] and instead of orcl use 3rdEdPocketGuide?
    (4) What command do I use to execute the script that comes with the book SQL Pocket Guide 3rd Ed? This is the script that has all the drop table, create table and insert commands in it.
    (5) What command do I use in sqlplus to set the current default database prior to running this script? Perhaps this is the connect command? I don't want my script to create tables in the system database.
    (6) I tried the command "connect 3rdEdPocketGuide" and it prompted for a password! Yikes! What password? Do I need to specify a password when I create a database? I cannot tell if I have successfully created such a database or it is just prompting me for a password to thwart malicious users. Is it is possible to create databases which don't require a password or maybe a zero length password?
    Thanks

    So I try checking the box for "OS Authentication" and I get the same error!

    Everyone:
    Do I need to create a user using SQL*Plus first so I can login with "Oracle SQL Developer" so I create my database called? What would be the "create user" command I would execute?
    OK, so I run sqlplus and issue these commands
    create user siegfried identified by abc ;
    grant connect to siegfried ;
    connect siegfried/abc;
    Now, how do I create a database? In Microsoft SQL Server one has to create a database first and if you just start creating tables without creating a database first, the tables will be created in the system database and this is usually undesirable.
    Sometimes a database is known in the java connection string as the catalog. Is there any such analog in oracle SQL plus?
    So now what do I do? I want to create a bunch of tables using my script I downloaded from 3rd Ed SQL Pocket Guide. Does my new user "siegfried" have the right to create tables? I guess I could try but I don't want to create tables in the system database.
    I noticed I can also use "Oracle SQL Developer" to connect with my new "siegfried" account. It seems that I should have been able to connect with sysdba... strange.
    So now I am connected in the "Oracle SQL Developer" and I see no list of databases.

    Interesting. Comes with? you didn't have either before? Paragon is commercial and is now v. 10.0, they were the only one keeping updated and was supporting 10.7.4. I would not enable more than one.
    For writing to HFS Paragon has theirs but probably give the nod to MacDrive there.
    I never do an upgrade to a new OS over the old system, I backup (clone) and format the drive with the new OS and do the install so whatever is there I know is clean and also to keep from carrying around leftovers from years and systems past.
    I would assme Paragon is limited. Try their site and knowledge base?

    As you see the above, I have run ./psconfig.sh in the directory /opt/PT8.53 and then run ./setup.sh in the directory /opt/PT8.53/setup/PsMpDbInstall.
    but get the error message:
    "You must run psconfig.sh (. ./psconfig.sh) under your PS_HOME directory before starting the Database Configuration Wizard."
    I have run the 2 commands ./psconfig.sh and ./setup.sh in root but get the same error message.
    My question is: Does PeopleTools8.53 Linux Version have a problem ? How to solve the issue ?
    Thanks.

    As you see the entire installation process above, the Installer cannot initialize Data Mover. I have run dbsetup.dms seperately, it cannot run. The 2 files psdmtx and parm1 cannot run.
    My questions are:
    First, how to get to Data Mover Bootstrap mode at this point of the installation so that import data into Database Instance ?
    Second, how to view Oracle database instances in Oracle Database Server so that make sure Database instance PT853 is created ?
    Thanks.
