4.
At this point, you can disconnect from the source database.
5.
Move the backup sets produced by step 3 to the destination host using OS commands such
as
scp
.
6.
Go the destination server and start up RMAN, and connect to the destination database as
the target:
$ rman
RMAN> connect target sys@orcl
7.
In this example,
orcl
is the name of the destination database where you want to transport
the database.
Restore the backup sets from the source database by executing the following
restore
command:
8.
RMAN> restore foreign database to new from backupset
'/u01/app/oracle/backup/db_transport_01';
The example shown here will restore the cross-platform backup contained in the backup set
db_transport_01
,
which is saved in the directory
/u01/app/oracle/backup
.
