transporatable tablespace

#We have 2 database i will show how to do a tablespace transport from one database to another

# in source database
#1.create a tablespace and a user using that tablespace and create a table in the user

SQL> create tablespace test_tbs;

SQL> create user test identified by test123 default tablespace test_tbs;

SQL> grant connect,resource to test;

SQL> create table test.test_tbl as select * from dba_tables;

# take the tablespace read only mode
#1.take a metadata export of the tablespace
#2.move the datafile to desired location
#3.make tablespace again read write

SQL> alter tablespace TEST_TBS read only;

SQL> exec dbms_file_transfer.COPY_FILE('ASM_SOURCE','test_tbs.548.828809123','ASM_DEST','test_tbs.test');

duplicate database creation in the same host from tape backup

Here original database name is ORCL which is running on the same host and we are creating a duplicate database (DUPDB) on that same host by utilizing the older tape backups available for that database.(auxiliary database should be the DUPDB)
