How to Mount the Cloning database on the same server which is using ASM diskgroup
Hi ,
We have Storage Replication from PROD to DR region for oracle database which is using ASM storage .
on DR Region we have two Nodes with Oracle Cluster Running using ASM .
Question :
1) can we Mount DR database and create a copy ( clone from Storage for Testing Prupose ) another database on the same server ? There was discussion ASM Header will cause issue as it will not allow to mount as it sees already ASM Disks were mounted for DR .
If this is the Challenge , what is the way we can mount both the storage copies on same server ?
2) if above is not possible , is it mount one copy at a time , like mount DR database , check the integrity , dismount disk groups and unmount from server and keep in Storage replication Mode . Next Mount the Cloned Test Copy for testing purposes ? Do you see any RISKS that ASM will not allow this approach for any reason ?
