Symptoms
When running runInstaller -createGoldImage to create a Gold Image of an Oracle Home, the process excludes the files under <Source OH>/network/admin directory, but it does not exclude files under <Source OH>/dbs directory:
Launching Oracle Database Setup Wizard...
Successfully Setup Software.
Gold Image location: /u01/app/oracle/gold/db_home_2023-10-24_09-12-52PM.zip
The Gold Image zip file contains DB-specific files in the dbs directory:
-rw-rw----. 1 test testgroup 1544 Oct 24 13:18 hc_ORCLCDB.dat
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 test testgroup 3079 May 14 2015 init.ora
-rw-r-----. 1 test testgroup 24 Oct 24 13:15 lkORCLCDB
-rw-r-----. 1 test testgroup 24 Oct 24 13:13 lkORCLCDB_CWF_SJC
-rw-r-----. 1 test testgroup 2048 Oct 24 13:15 orapwORCLCDB
-rw-r-----. 1 test testgroup 19087360 Oct 24 13:28 snapcf_ORCLCDB.f
-rw-r-----. 1 test testgroup 4608 Oct 24 13:19 spfileORCLCDB.ora
These should not be present inside the Gold Image, as they're Instance specific.

The Gold Image Creation process excludes the Instance-specific Network Configuration Files like - tnsnames.ora,listener.ora and sqlnet.ora-
