Creating a clone on the same ASM Diskgroup for testing Database restore procedure

edited Jun 22, 2012 11:19AM in Storage Management (ASM ACFS DNFS ODM) (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered
I am using Oracle's DBCA utility in order to create a clone of a database on an ASM disk group.   I am using this utility instead of RMAN and DUPLICATE commands because of the limited space left on the ASM diskgroup and I can adjust the tablespace sizes in order to fit this test database on the system. 

I am performing a test restore from the current database in production to this clone and will use the original RMAN backups to restore to this alternate clone so as not to impact current production.

I want to create the clone on the ASM disk group, but currently there is only one disk group for the data.   Is it necessary to create a subdirectory to the diskgroup for the new clone or is it automatically created based on the "db_create_file_dest" parameter?  I am using Oracle Managed Files on this ASM disk group.

Howdy, Stranger!
