RMAN "set newname for database" Does Not Work for Root datafiles (Doc ID 2818346.1)

Last updated on JULY 20, 2024

Applies to:

Oracle Database - Enterprise Edition - Version 19.3.0.0.0 and later
Information in this document applies to any platform.

Symptoms

When restoring a PDB tablespace and using "set newname for database", RMAN tries to restore the Root datafiles to the source database directory.  I.e., ignoring the 'set newname for database'.  If permission of that source directory is not present, or the directory does not exists, then error will occur.

For example, at source DB, data file is under the following directory:

  <PATH_1>
