RMAN duplicate and temp file creation
I create a cloned copy of a 10.2.0.4 production database nightly to a development instance, using the RMAN duplicate command. The production database consistently has a very large (~20GB) temp tablespace. Is there a way I can avoid having the temp space recreated in my duplicated instance, or downsized? It appears from the documentation that the temp space recreation is totally automated from 10.2 onward.
I am unable to shutdown the production instance in order to shrink the temp tablespace. Does anyone know of any creative workarounds?
Thanks
