database ID in source and target
778784Jun 25 2010 — edited Jun 26 2010Hi,
i recently cloned a database using HOT backup, WITHOUT RMAN.
The documentation for this procedure states that If RMAN is going to be used to back-up the new database, the database ID must be changed.
What exactly is the reason for this??
Can i not keep the same database ID so that i dont have to set it when restoring/recovering from production database?
