Question

Sorry guys,

I got some kind of problem using rman duplicating a DB called cs2t into cs2b.
Starting Duplicate Db at 17.05.2006 07:54:10
released channel: t1
released channel: t2
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-00569: =============== ERROR MESSAGE STACK FOLLOWS ===============
RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of Duplicate Db command at 05/17/2006 07:54:10

Therefore I found on metalink some informations about using UNTIL TIME.
I´ve tryed it....but now...there are some other erros on my rman.log
executing command: SET until clause

and now: no ideas anymore...i´ve googled for it about 3hours...nothing found....may anybody help me - please?
P.S. I hope you´ll understand anything i´ve wrote into this message ;-)

hi,
you have to use db_file_name_convert and db_log-filename_convert parameter in the auxiliary database parameter file and use nofilenamecheck parameter with the duplicate command.
This is also recommended that you create new redo og files for auxiliary databse just like --
RMAN> run{
2> allocate auxiliary channel c1 device type disk;
3> duplicate target database to prod1 pfile='c:\oracle\ora92\database\initprod1.ora'
4> logfile 'c:\oracle\oradata\prod1\redo01.log' size 50m,
5> 'c:\oracle\oradata\prod1\redo02.log' size 50m,
6> 'c:\oracle\oradata\prod1\redo03.log' size 50m ;}
i hope it solve your problem..
