I am trying to clone a schema from one Oracle 10g server to a different Oracle 10g server.

I have created a database template (DBCA) from an existing database (structure and data).

I have copied the three template files .dbc, .DBF and .CTL to the other oracle 10g server. Do I need to copy any other files?

I am looking to achieve this by using DBCA utility not through the import/export data pump.

I can clone a database on the same machine using DBCA utility but am not able to clone it on the different machine using the first machine's template.

Just get the pfile from the other database, edit proper paths. Create a spfile from the pfile ( dba-oracle.com/concepts/pfile_spfile.htm ) – Munchi Sep 27 '12 at 11:17
