I keep getting this error while trying to make a copy of a prod db to a
dev environment (which are on two separate boxes): ORA-01697 invalid
option for create controlfile. Controlfile is for a clone database.
Oracle 8.0.6 on NT. Any ideas on why this is happening? These are the
procedures I am following:
>From Dev env.
1. Shutdown current dev and remove all datafiles and controlfiles (but
leave initDEV).
>From Prod:
1. Shutdown and do cold backup
2. Move datafiles from prod to dev environment
3. Do 'Alter database backup controlfile to trace'. Take the trace file
and make a sql script changing SID name from PROD to DEV, etc. as
follows:
STARTUP NOMOUNT;
CREATE CONTROLFILE SET DATABASE "DEV" RESETLOGS NOARCHIVELOG
MAXLOGFILES 32
MAXLOGMEMBERS 5
MAXDATAFILES 1022
