Cloning or Refresh – What did I do?

Posted on August 25, 2008. Filed under: Clone, DBA/Admin Tips | Tags: , , |

Most of us use these terms, interchangeably. Is there a difference in the actual meaning of these terms, Yes, it does.

Clone – Describes when you create a new environment exactly as that of an existing environment. Eg. RAC to RAC, Multi Node Appl Top to Multi Node Appl Top

Refresh – Describes wherein you already have an environment (same replica or different) and you just sync the data between the instances. (eg. RAC to Non-Rac, Multi Node Appl Top to Single Node Appl Top)

So what did you do over the weekend, cloning or refresh 
