You can set the parameter db_file_name_convert in init.ora in you new database with [ID 47325.1]
or
you can set parameter "set newname" in your script rman. [ID 549972.1]
if you have one or two destinations of dbfiles in ASM I seggest to you set parameter db_file_name_convert in init.
example:
db_file_name_convert=('+DGDATA','/u01/oradata/');
remenber you need set log_file_name_convert to.
log_file_name_convert=('+DGREDO','/u01/redo/');
if you use "set newname" commands you need set this lines in your script rman.
set newname for datafile 1 to '/u01/oradata/system01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 2 to '/u01/oradata/undotbs01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 3 to '/u01/oradata/sysaux01.dbf';
set newname for datafile 4 to '/u01/oradata/users01.dbf';
and every datafiles you need set!
