RENAME DATABASE using controlfile scripts and old dbf files

387891Feb 28 2003 — edited Feb 28 2003
Hi,

I have all database files (DBF, REDO LOGS, ARCHIVE, CONTROL etc.) My objective is I want to set up replica of the same database on the same system using these files, and give some different name to the same. I have got the script to create control file where I ahve specified the new name of database, but since all dbf files header has got db name with them, I am unable to rename the database, I used option of REUSE in controlfile, but it is not working. How could I achieve my goal ??

Thanx,
