check udump
sql>show parameter user_dump_dest

you can also use below cmd.

sql>alter database backup control to 'path';
above file is generated in encrypted format.

Control File Backups
Backing up the control file is a crucial aspect of backup and recovery. Without a control file, you cannot mount or open the database.

You can instruct RMAN to automatically backup the control file whenever you run backup jobs. The command is CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP. Because the autobackup uses a default filename, RMAN can restore this backup even if the RMAN repository is unavailable. Hence, this feature is extremely useful in a disaster recovery scenario.

You can make manual backups of the control file by using the following methods:

The RMAN BACKUP CURRENT CONTROLFILE command makes a binary backup of the control file, as either a backup set or an image copy.

The SQL statement ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE makes a binary backup of the control file.

The SQL statement ALTER DATABASE BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE exports the control file contents to a SQL script file. You can use the script to create a new control file. Trace file backups have one major disadvantage: they contain no records of archived redo logs, and RMAN backups and copies. For this reason, binary backups are preferable


hope this helps.

Hi,
Please set DB_NAME, INSTANCE_NAME etc etc in the new pfile to the new dbname. Then edit the CREATE CONRTROLFILE script and replace:-

CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE <OLD DB NAME> RESETLOGS...........

with

CREATE CONTROLFILE SET <NEW DB NAME> RESETLOGS.............

Then run the CREATE CONTROLFILE script.

HTH,

Ken.

Please don't start a new thread for additional, related questions.
Post them as a reply to this one.
(And don't start in SQL - PL/SQL Newbies, they are ServerAdmin related)
