Oracle Apps R12.2.4 Cloning Step by step

Cold Cloning Steps (Multi User & Single Node)

Step:-1
Prepare the Source System for database tier and application tier

Execute the following commands to prepare the Source System for cloning: 

Note: Ensure all the processes in the Source System are up before proceeding with the following two steps.

Prepare the Source System database tier for cloning 
Log on to the Source System as the DB_user.

Source the Database tier environment file.

Execute the following commands:

$ cd <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil/scripts/<CONTEXT_NAME>
$ perl adpreclone.pl dbTier

Step:-2
Prepare the Source System application tier for cloning

Log on to the primary node of the Source System as the apps_user.
Source the environment file of the Run Edition File system.

You can use the following command to confirm that the environment variable FILE_EDITION points to the Run Edition File System:
$ echo $FILE_EDITION
It should return the value:
run
Execute the following commands:
$ cd <INST_TOP>/admin/scripts
$ perl adpreclone.pl appsTier

Note: If you apply a new Rapid Clone or AutoConfig update to the system, you must execute adpreclone.pl again on the database tier and applications tier to apply the new files into the clone directory structures to be used during the cloning configuration stage. Furthermore, if you patch Oracle Fusion Middleware or make configuration changes to the Oracle E-Business Suite WebLogic Domain, you must execute adpreclone.pl again on the applications tier to rebuild the Oracle Fusion Middleware home.

As of Release 12.2, the adpreclone.pl process on the application tier creates a complete compressed archive of the Oracle Fusion Middleware and its components as follows:

A compressed archive of the Oracle WebLogic Server home,
Oracle Web Tier Utilities home, Oracle Common Utilities home and the Oracle E-Business Suite home:
<COMMON_TOP>/clone/FMW/FMW_Home.jar

A compressed archive of the Oracle E-Business Suite WebLogic domain:
<COMMON_TOP>/clone/FMW/WLS/EBSdomain.jar

The Oracle E-Business Suite WebLogic domain's configuration template:
<COMMON_TOP>/clone/FMW/WLS/plan/moveplan.xml

A compressed archive of the Oracle Web Tier/Oracle HTTP Server configuration instance:
<COMMON_TOP>/clone/FMW/OHS/ohsarchive.jar

The Oracle HTTP Server configuration instance's configuration template:
<COMMON_TOP>/clone/FMW/OHS/moveplan.xml

Shut down the application processes (Windows platform only) 

Log on to Run Edition File System in the Source System as the apps_user, and shut down all the application processes.

Step:-3
Copy both database tier and application tier nodes from the Source System to the Target System

Copy the application tier file system from the Source node to the Target node by executing the following steps in the order listed. Ensure the application tier files copied to the Target System are owned by the Target apps_user, and that the database node files are owned by the Target oracle user.

Note: In the copying tasks below, UNIX users should ensure that the symbolic links (soft links) are preserved when copying. On most UNIX platforms, you can accomplish this with the cp -RH command. Consult the UNIX man page for the cp command to check the parameters available on your platform.

For example:
$ scp -r /source_dest_dir/db 192.168.1.100-(target):/u01/


Alternatively, you can use the tar command to compress the directories into a temporary staging area. UNIX users should ensure that the symbolic links (soft links) are preserved when compressing. On most UNIX platforms, this is the default behavior of the tar command. Consult the UNIX man page for the tar command to check the parameters available on your platform.

In addition, verify the permissions of the executables under ORACLE_HOME/bin that can potentially be owned by root, such as nmo, nmhs, and nmb.

Copy the database node file system

Log on to the Source System database node as the oracle user, and then:

Perform a normal shut down of the Source System database.

Copy the database (.dbf) files from the Source System to the Target System.

Copy the Source System database ORACLE_HOME to the Target System.

Start the Source applications system database and application tier processes.

Copy the application tier file system from the Source "Run Edition File System" to the Target "Run Edition File System"

Log on to Run Edition File System in the Source System application tier nodes as the apps_user.

Copy the following application tier directories from the Source Node to the Target Run Edition File System application tier node:
WHAT NEEDS TO BE COPIED
----------------------------
Choose only RUN FILE SYSTEM for copying




<APPL_TOP>

<COMMON_TOP>

<OracleAS Tools 10.1.2 ORACLE_HOME>
The same operating system user must own both the Run Edition and Patch Edition File Systems.

Note: In Release 12.2, you can set the base directory to any desired location. However, the subdirectory structure cannot be changed because of dependencies on both the WLS domain and the dual file system required for online patching. Also, the base directory must be the same across all nodes in multi-node configurations.

Dual File System Directory Structure 

In Release 12.2, the following directory structure exists to support the Run Edition and Patch Edition File Systems: 

Note: <s_base> and <sid> are user-defined values.
<s_base>/<sid>/fs1 (for example, /u02/apps/fs1)

<s_base>/<sid>/fs2 (for example, /u02/apps/fs2)

Two environment variables, $RUN_BASE and $PATCH_BASE, store these locations. The function (run or patch) of these two file systems is not static, and their values switch every time when a cut over phase is complete.

Note: As Rapid Clone will create a replica of the Source Node, if the Source Run Edition File System is the first file system (fs1), the Target Run Edition File System will also be the first file system (fs1). Similarly, if the Source Run Edition File System is the second file system (fs2), then the Target Run Edition File System will also be the second file system (fs2). Therefore, when you perform a cloning task, you always clone and copy the Source Run Edition File System to create the Target Run Edition File System, but the directory location of the Run Edition File System can be pointing either to <s_base>/<sid>/fs1 or <s_base>/<sid>/fs2 based on the Source Run Edition File System base directory.

When copying the files, use the values of $RUN_BASE and $PATCH_BASE variables to determine if the Run Edition File System should be copied to fs1 or fs2.

The Source Run Edition File System has the following values:

$RUN_BASE=/u02/apps/fs2

$PATCH_BASE=/u02/apps/fs1

The Target <s_base> directory will be /d05/test. Copy the Source Run Edition File System into the Target /d05/test/fs2 directory to initially act as Run Edition File System.

Step:-4
Configure the Target System

Run the following commands to configure the Target System. You will be prompted for specific Target System values such as SID, paths, and ports.

Configure the Target System Database Tier

Log on to the Target System as the oracle user and enter the following commands:
$ cd <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>/appsutil/clone/bin
$ perl adcfgclone.pl dbTier

Login with DB_User
