RMAN-00571 RMAN-00569 RMAN-03002 RMAN-05501 RMAN-05597:Database started with server parameter file and PFILE clause used in command

Recently We have done the RMAN clone DEV from PROD that time We are faced  below Issue

 Error:-

channel ch1: CommVault Systems for Oracle: Version 9.0.0(BUILD84)
executing command: SET until clause
Starting Duplicate Db at Dec 21 2012 10:36:11

RMAN-00571: ===========================================================
RMAN-03002: failure of Duplicate Db command at 12/21/2012 10:36:11
RMAN-05501: aborting duplication of target database
RMAN-05597: Database started with server parameter file and PFILE clause used in command
Recovery Manager completed

Cause:-

Database mounted with spfile

Solution :-

We have to stop the Database then use startup pfile=<LOcation of Pfile> mount then your problem will resolved

 

Example:-

SQL> startup pfile=/oracle/product/db/tech_st/11.2.0/dba/initMUTH.ora mount

Then Provide dublicate database command

Comments are welcome!!!!!!!!!!
