Hi,

I am building a new database 9.2.0.7 on a windows 2003 server.
This is going to be a duplicate of the production database from the production server. My doubt is whether I can copy the database template from the production server, prod.dbt and paste it onto the new server and then start dbca? But the thing is the database name in the new server should be stg and not prod. But everything else going to be the same like the locations etc..

I am not sure if I can copy the template prod.dbt from the production server to the new server and then rename it to stg.dbt. Please advise if it is a good idea.

Thanks so much!

yes template would be good option.after creating your db on other machine you can change your db name by using DBNEWID utility.

ok.. I can use DBNEWID utility.

One more thing, do you think I could rename the database name by editing the template in the new server? Will that work?

Thanks for your support.

yes you can change your db name.
Post your oracle version.
when you would create database on other site using template after creating your duplicate database.
see the attached file for name changing.

Oracle version is 9.2.0.7 on windows 2003.

I am sorry I am a little confused.. When you said ' yes, you can change the db name' did you mean to say I can change the dbname just by editing the template in the newserver after copying it from the old server?

Or you meant to say I can change the dbname only using DBNEWID utility using the attachment and not the above method?

Thank you.

I guess You can't change it in template because the template contains the same controlfile from production.
After creating database by template you can use DBNEWID to change that dbname.

Dreamz,

I am thinking of copying the template from the production server to the new server. And then will make changes to the template on the new server. The template and the control files will still exist the same in the production server. Since, only the changes are made in teh new server template, I think it should be fine. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks.

You will make template with data or without data.



will you create the database on non-production server using template or not?

RMAN> DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE TO your_db_name
DEVICE TYPE disk PFILE='/net/host_src/tmp/initTEST.ora';

Template without the datafiles.. Yes, I am going to create the database on the new server using the renamed template from the production server. I will try it out and let you know if it worked out good.

Thanks!

Hi,

I renamed the template in the new server and have created the database successfully using dbca specifying no datafiles. Now, I am trying to import the full database from the prodcution server to the new database. Below is the import script I used and below are the error messages I got:

imp system/system_bay@bay file=exp_full.dmp log=imp_full.log full=Y rows=Y buffer=400000

IMP-00015: following statement failed because the object already exists
IMP-00003: ORACLE error 1917 encountered
ORA-01917: user or role 'kricki' does not exist
IMP-00017: following statement failed with ORACLE error 1917:
"GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO "pnrl""

There was a bunch of similar error messages I got. I looked u for these errors in google, and I think I can just write IGNORE=Y in the imp script. But, since I renamed the template from prod server, the database files are already there. I have to import the rows though, because this database is to be used like a test database.

Thanks for your help!

Dreamzz,
I meant I created the database with the option of No datafiles,when dbca asks for 'Include datafiles' I clicked No.
Because I need to use the data from the production.

Thanks!

Create the tablespaces before import.

Tablespaces are created already...I wont be able to paste the whole error log since its against my company policy and it will be a problem for me..Thanks for understanding...

But the following are the errors I am getting:

IMP-00015: following statement failed because the object already exists
IMP-00003: ORACLE error 1917 encountered
ORA-01917: user or role 'kricki' does not exist
IMP-00017: following statement failed with ORACLE error 1917:
"GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO "pnrl""

There are consistent error messages in the log file..Please give me your suggestions of how I can import the data.Thank you so much..

Hi

Copy role definition from production, create new role here using that definition & then import using ignore=Y

That should work.
