There are 4 supported Golden Image (GI) types:

  7. You will need to create your oracle instance on this directory, so all datafiles, controlfiles, redo, archives , dump and audit will point to this path

    E.g. spfile parameters:

    *.audit_file_dest='/main_pool/00000046/adump'

    *.control_files='/main_pool/00000046/control01.ctl'

    *.db_create_file_dest='/main_pool/00000046'

    *.db_create_online_log_dest_1='/main_pool/00000046'

    *.db_recovery_file_dest='/main_pool/00000046'

    *.diagnostic_dest='/main_pool/00000046'

    *.log_archive_dest_1='location=/main_pool/00000046'

     The spfile itself should also be placed on the same directory

  8. Once the database is up and running , proceed to activate the GI. Click the Activate icon net to the GI. The Activation verifies that the new database is fully located in the required directory.
