    Do you have to copy oracle_home directory from source to target on db server.

    • levicorp said

      Hi,
      If needed yes, but if you already have Oracle_Home directory with the same version on the target, so you don’t need to copy it.

      Thanks,

      Fahmi

      Hi,
      Thanks for the Correction : Alter Tablespace Begin Backup — Copy the Datafiles — Alter Tablespace End Backup.

    How is possible that you don’t need to shutdown the application tier before copying those files?

    • levicorp said

      Hi Amy,
      It is possible to copy all Applications Tier since it consists of executable files, output files and log files. For executable file, as long as the target platform same as the source platform we don’t need to worry the executable file will not run on the target.
      If we consider the output file and log file of the request should be same as the source system, then when process cloning, concurrent request should not run.

      actually, I never did in windows environment for cloning EBS windows. But if you read my article, it should be the same. For cloning database in Windows, you can do hot backup. for cloning application, since the applications is binary data, it will not impact to the running programs. you just copy it to another server.
      Sorry can’t help you much, might be anyone can help Hussain?
