This is my cloning process.... I get the following errors.. I also double check with my process and still couldn't find anything.

SQL> @backup_control.sql
ORACLE instance started.

ORA-01161: database name OBS in file header does not match given name of UAT
ORA-01110: data file 1: '/u01/oracle/uatdata/system01.dbf'

Any ideas of this error?

Best Regards,
