What?
Cloning is the method of creating an identical copy of an existing Oracle E-Business Suite system. The system to be cloned is called to as the source system, and the newly created system is called to as the target system.
Why and When?
- For patch testing
- For refreshing a test system from a production system
- Moving an existing system to a different machine or platform
How?
Simply run the pre clone script in source system, copy the application file system to target system and execute post clone scripts in target system. I will describe all cloning steps in details in next session.
Important: OS version must be same.
