Restore/recover production backup on test

Hi guys!

I need to do restore from tape production backups on test server. We are doing refresh of test server in order to have recent data from production. Both servers (prod and test) are version 10.2.0.5 on Oracle Linux 5. And we are using incremental backups each day of production.

My question is what would be correct steps to do this? Ill write how i see this:

  • Drop datafiles, control files, and redo logs on test machine, ?
  • Run restore production backup from tape
  • Recover database

Also to mention that test server has same datafile, redo and control files locations. I need also to do change of database name with NID tool and this would be ok?
