The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

oracle cloning on 9i not going according to plan.

Asked by arpoodle in Oracle Database

Tags: oracle, 9i

I'm cloning a database, from one server to another, and changing SID in the process.

From the source, I performed an "alter database backup controlfile to trace" and have modified the script accordingly, to take into account new data filenames and paths,
I've copied all the datafiles across, and have renamed them accordingly.

I have run
bash-2.05$ SQLPLUS /nolog
sqlplus> connect system/manager as sysdba
sqlplus> startup nomount

and have then run the controlfile creation script created from the source.

the script doesn't terminate, and seems to hang.

in disk01/oradata/live1/ctrl/ a control file is created.
however, no controlfile is created in the respective disk03, or disk04 directories as exist in the source.

the database has a number of large datafiles, containing BLOBs, the largest single datafile is 32gb.

if I run tkprof on the trace file, I can see that is executes the script, but it doesn't give me any info on what's happening.

for a LARGE set of datafiles, how long shoud the controlfile creation take? am i just being impatient, or should the script terminate quickly, and I've got another problem.

thanks
