Problem while Creating Control files while Cloning the Oracle DB

442562Sep 24 2005 — edited Sep 29 2005
Hi,

I am failrly new to Oracle Administration. I have got the task of cloning our Production database into a new machine. With the help of various articles found over the web I have followed the below mentioned steps
1)Executed the Alter database command for getting the control file copy.
2) Taken the Datafiles,Control and redo log files copies into the Target machine.
3) Copied the Pfile with the neccessary changes into the target machine.
4) Edited the Create Control file syntax (generated from step 1) and executed the same on the target machine.
Now the problem I face is that I get the following error while executing the create Control file syntax
a)ORA-01503 - Creation of Controlfile failed.
b) ORA-00219 - Required controlfile size 41760 exceeds max allowable size 20000.
I am really stuck. Both my machine configurations and O/S installed are the same.
Please advice me on how to Proceed... Thanking you all in advannce.

Rgds,
SN.
