We can clone a pluggable database from existing PDB ( PROD), residing on the same container. 1. First start the PDB in read only , which needs to be cloned. SQL> select name,open_mode from v$pdbs; NAME OPEN_MODE ------------------------------ ---------- PDB$SEED READ ONLY ORCL READ WRITE PROD READ WRITE SQL> alter session set container=PROD; Session altered. SQL> select file_name from dba_data_files; FILE_NAME -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /home/oracle/app/oracle/oradata/cdb1/prod/system01.dbf /home/oracle/app/oracle/oradata/cdb1/prod/sysaux01.dbf SQL> show con_name CON_NAME ------------------------------ PROD SQL> shutdown immediate; Pluggable Database closed. SQL> startup open read only Pluggable Database opened. 2. Connect to the container and clone the pluggable: -- connect to container CDB1 SQL> conn sys/oracle@cdb1 as sysdba Connected. SQL> show con_name CON_NAME ------------------------------ CDB$ROOT --
