RAC to RAC Clone (NPMP to NPMT)

1. Point-in-time used for Recovery 02.04.2009 03:54:32

2. Prefetch
pf ITSM1001 -node TDPO_NPMP 2009-04-02
3. create spfile from pfile;
4. Comment all Cluster related parameters and NPMT1 parameters as below
cluster_database=false
cluster_database_instances =1
dbname=NPMP
5. Used setnewname.sql
SQL>set linesize 300
SQL>set pagesize 200
SQL>set long 100
SQL>spool setnewname.sql
select 'set newname for datafile '||file#||' to '|| replace(name,
' +DG_DB_NPMP/npmp/datafile',''''||' +DG_DB_NPMT/npmt/datafile')||''';' from v$datafile;
SQL>Spool off
6. Shutdown the DB
srvctl stop database -d NPMT
7. Mount the DB in restrict mode to drop the database
SQL > startup mount pfile=initNPMT1.ora restrict
SQL> Drop database;
SQL> Shut immediate;

8. SQL>Startup nomount pfile=initNPMT1.ora

9. Restore control file
Connect rman10 catalog

ERROR at line 1:
ORA-38856: cannot mark instance UNNAMED_INSTANCE_2 (redo thread 2) as enabled
Got error as below due to Bug 4355382 and solution is set the hidden parameter
13. alter system set "_no_recovery_through_resetlogs"=TRUE
14. Rename the Database name with NID
Nid target=/ dbname=NPMT
15. Uncomment all cluster parameters and restart the DB and change the DBname to NPMT
16. SQL>Startup pfile=initNPMT1.ora
17. Enable thread for 2:
SQL> alter database enable public thread 2;
alter database enable public thread 2
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01613: instance UNNAMED_INSTANCE_2 (thread 2) only has 0 logs - at least 2 logs
required to enable.
18. Add 5 groups as below for Thread 2 to avoid the above error
alter database add logfile thread 2 group 6 size 1G;
