1. ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE 2. Either use the hot backup technique to copy the datafiles or shutdown the DB and copy all the datafiles. 3. Copy the Datafiles and logs to the appropriate disks in HOST2 4. Create the instance using the copied PFILE and ORADIM 5. Change the names of the datafiles and redo-logs in the create controlfile statement generated by step 1 6. Start the instance without mounting - STARTUP NOMOUNT 7. Create controlfile using the create control file statement. 8. If you used the consistent set of datafiles open database resetlogs or else recover database after applying the archived redo-logs.
