You can clone a Middleware home and certain Oracle Fusion Middleware components, such as Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle HTTP Server, Oracle Internet Directory and Oracle Virtual Directory.
This chapter includes the following topics:
Cloning is the process of copying an existing entity to a different location while preserving its state. Some situations in which cloning Oracle Fusion Middleware is useful are:
Creating a Middleware home that is a copy of a production, test, or development environment. Cloning enables you to create a new Middleware home with all patches applied to all of the Oracle homes and the WebLogic Server home in a single step. This is in contrast to separately installing and applying any patches to the WebLogic Server home and separate Oracle homes.
Preparing a "gold" image of a patched Middleware home and deploying it to many hosts.
The cloned entity behaves the same as the source entity. For example, a cloned Middleware home can be deinstalled or patched using the installer. It can also be used as the source for another cloning operation.
You can clone the following, on the same host or a different host. The clone must be on the same operating system as the source.
Middleware home: You can clone the Middleware home, the Oracle WebLogic Server home, and all of the Oracle homes within the Middleware home. (You can clone a Middleware home that contains no Oracle homes, but you need to have the cloning jar file and cloning scripts that are compatible with the version of the Middleware home you want to clone.)
You can apply the clone of the Middleware home to the same host or a different host.
Java components: You can clone the configuration of a domain containing Java components, such as Oracle SOA Suite and Oracle Business Activity Monitoring to the same or a different Middleware home, on the same host or a different host.
System components: You can clone the configuration of a domain containing system components, such as Oracle HTTP Server and Oracle Internet Directory, to the same or a different Oracle instance, to the same or a different Middleware home, on the same host or a different host.
See Section 20.7 for details of considerations and limitations affecting specific components.
When you clone an entity of Oracle Fusion Middleware, the cloning process takes a snapshot of the information required for cloning. The following topics describe the cloning process:
When you clone a Middleware home, you create an archive of the source Middleware home and use the archive to create the cloned Middleware home:
At the source, you run the copyBinary script, specifying the Middleware home that you want to clone. The script prepares the source for cloning and creates an archive. It also records the file permissions of the Middleware home and the Oracle homes within the Middleware home.
The archive contains all of the Oracle homes and Oracle WebLogic Server home in the Middleware home.
At the destination, you run the pasteBinary script, specifying a destination for the Middleware home. The script checks to see that the prerequisites are met at the destination. It extracts the files from the archive file, registers the Oracle homes with the Oracle inventory and registers WebLogic Server home with the Middleware home.
The clone program then restores the file permissions and relinks any files if that is necessary.
See Section 20.5.1 for detailed information about these steps.
You can clone certain Oracle Fusion Middleware components, as described in Section 20.2. You create an archive of the source component's configuration and use the archive to create the cloned component.
For Java components, such as Oracle SOA Suite, you use the copyConfig, extractMovePlan, and pasteConfig scripts to clone the configuration, including the domain, the Administration Server, and the Managed Servers.
For some system components, such as Oracle HTTP Server, you use the copyConfig, extractMovePlan, and pasteConfig scripts to clone the configuration, including the Oracle instance.
Note:
When you clone a component, the scripts replicate the topology of the source. For example, if the source domain contains Managed Servers server_1 and server_2 on Host A and Managed Servers server_3 and server_4 on Host B, you must specify a similar relationship between Managed Servers and hosts at the target. (You specify the hosts for each Managed Server in the move plan.)To clone components, you take the following steps:
You clone the Middleware home, as described in Section 20.3.1.
At the source, make sure that the Administration Server and all Managed Servers are started.
At the source, you run the copyConfig script, specifying the source component that you want to clone. The script creates a configuration archive file that contains a snapshot of the configuration of an Oracle WebLogic Server domain or system component instance.
You extract a move plan from the source using the extractMovePlan script. A move plan contains configuration settings of the source environment. You can edit the move plan, specifying properties for the target environment.
At the target, you run the pasteConfig script, specifying the destination for the component and the move plan. The script checks to see that the prerequisites are met at the target. It extracts the files from the archive file and uses the information in the move plan to modify the configuration on the target. Then, it restores the file permissions.
In addition, the pasteConfig scripts starts the Administration Server.
See Section 20.5.2 and Section 20.5.3 for detailed information about these steps.
Cloning uses the following jar file to execute the scripts necessary to clone binary and configuration files:
(UNIX) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/jlib/cloningclient.jar (Windows) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME\jlib\cloningclient.jar
You use the following scripts to clone a Middleware home or component:
To copy the binary files of the source Middleware home:
(UNIX) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/bin/copyBinary.sh (Windows) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME\bin\copyBinary.cmd
See Section 20.4.1.1 for the syntax of the script.
To apply the copied Middleware home to the target:
(UNIX) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/bin/pasteBinary.sh (Windows) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME\bin\pasteBinary.cmd
See Section 20.4.1.2 for the syntax of the script.
To copy the source component configuration:
(UNIX) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/bin/copyConfig.sh (Windows) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME\bin\copyConfig.cmd
See Section 20.4.1.3 and Section 20.4.1.4 for the syntax of the script.
To extract a move plan from the source component:
(UNIX) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/bin/extractMovePlan.sh (Windows) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME\bin\extractMovePlan.cmd
See Section 20.4.1.5 for the syntax of the script.
To apply the copied component configuration to the target:
(UNIX) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/bin/pasteConfig.sh (Windows) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME\bin\pasteConfig.cmd
See Section 20.4.1.6 and Section 20.4.1.7 for the syntax of the script.
To view the help on any of these scripts, use the -help option. For example:
./pasteConfig.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware/jdk160_21 -help
Note that the help shows the UNIX version of the parameter values. For other platforms, such as Windows, change the parameter values for the platform.
To specify additional Java options, define the T2P_JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable and specify the options in the variable definition. The following examples set the value for the Java temp directory:
On Linux or UNIX:
setenv T2P_JAVA_OPTIONS "-Djava.io.tmpdir=/home/t2p/temp" export T2P_JAVA_OPTIONS
On Windows:
set T2P_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Djava.io.tmpdir=c:\home\t2p\temp"
Note:
If you are applying the clone of a Middleware home on a host that does not yet have Oracle Fusion Middleware installed, note the followingThe host must have JDK 1.6.04 or higher installed. In addition, ensure that the PATH, CLASSPATH, and JAVA_HOME environment variables point to the JDK.
Copy the pasteBinary script from the following location in the source host to the target host:
(UNIX) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/bin/pasteBinary.sh (Windows) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME\bin\pasteBinary.cmd
Copy the following file from the following location in the source host to the target host:
(UNIX) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/jlib/cloningclient.jar (Windows) ORACLE_COMMON_HOME\jlib\cloningclient.jar
If you run the pasteBinary script from a different location than ORACLE_COMMON_HOME/bin, then the pasteBinary script and the cloningclient.jar file must be in the same directory.
If you are running pasteBinary on a host that has no prior Oracle Fusion Middleware installations, ORACLE_COMMON_home/bin will not exist prior to running pasteBinary, and therefore the pasteBinary script and cloningclient.jar must be in the same directory.
Ensure that the files have execute permission.
The following topics describe the syntax of the cloning scripts. The options are described in the tables that follow the syntax.
Note:
All cloning scripts ask if you want to continue whenever you do not specify the -silent true option. To continue, you must type yes, which is not case sensitive. Any words other than yes causes the script to return an error. Also note that, in silent mode, the scripts generate an error if you do not provide passwords where they are needed.
Most options have shortcut names, as described in the tables later in the following sections.
The value of options must not contain a space. For example, on Windows, you cannot pass the following as a value to the -javaHome option:
C:\\Program Files\jdk
Creates an archive file of the source Middleware home, by copying the binary files of that Middleware home, including all of its Oracle homes and its WebLogic Server home, into the archive file. The syntax is:
copyBinary -javaHome path_of_jdk -archiveLoc archive_location -sourceMWHomeLoc MW_HOME [-invPtrLoc Oracle_InventoryLocation] [-logDirLoc log_dir_path] [-silent {true | false}] [-ignoreDiskWarning {true | false}]
The following example shows how to create an archive of a Middleware home on Linux:
copyBinary.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/jrockit_160_20_D1.1.0-18
-archiveLoc /tmp/mw_clone.jar
-sourceMWHomeLoc /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1
-invPtrLoc /scratch/oracle/oraInst.loc
Note:
Before you execute the copyBinary script, ensure that all Oracle homes in the Middleware home are either 32 bit or 64 bit. The operation does not support a mix of 32-bit and 64-bit Oracle homes.When you execute the command, you must specify a matching Java home. That is, if the Oracle homes are 64 bit, you must specify a 64-bit Java home. If the Oracle homes are 32 bit. you must specify a 32-bit Java home.

The general steps for cloning, whether you are cloning Middleware home or a component, are similar. The general steps are described in Section 20.3.
The following topics describe how to clone Oracle Fusion Middleware entities and how to customize move plans for components:
You can clone a Middleware home, which can contain one or more Oracle homes and an Oracle WebLogic Server home. (You can also clone a Middleware home that contains zero Oracle homes, but you need to have the cloning jar file and cloning scripts that are compatible with the version of the Middleware home you want to clone.)
Note:
The cloning operation archives only those Oracle homes that lie within a Middleware home. It does not clone Oracle homes that are located outside of the Middleware home.
You can clone only one Middleware home at a time.
If Oracle WebLogic Server is not located in the Middleware home, the Oracle WebLogic Server home is not archived and cloned, but any Oracle homes in the Middleware home are archived and cloned.
On Windows, ensure that no Oracle WebLogic Server processes are running in the source Middleware home.
On UNIX, if the target host does not contain the file oraInst.loc, you must create the file (you must have Super User or root privileges). By default, the clone operation looks for the file in the /etc directory. If you create it in another location, use the -invPtrLoc option to the pasteBinary script to specify the location.
The file must contain the following:
inventory_loc=oraInventory_location inst_group=user_group
To clone a Middleware home:
On Windows, at the source Middleware home, stop the Administration Server and any Managed Servers running in the Middleware home.
At the source Middleware home, execute the copyBinary script, which copies the WebLogic Server home and the Oracle homes contained within the Middleware home. If there are no Oracle homes in the source Middleware home, no Oracle homes are present in the archive.
For example, to clone a Middleware home that is located at /scratch/Oracle /Middleware1, use the following command:
copyBinary.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/jrockit_160_20_D1.1.0-18
-archiveLoc /tmp/mw_clone.jar
-sourceMWHomeLoc /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1
-invPtrLoc /scratch/oracle/oraInst.loc
If you are cloning the Middleware home to a different host, copy the archive file to that system.
Copy the pasteBinary scripts and the cloningclient.jar file to the target system and ensure that they have execute permission. See Section 20.4 for the locations of the files.
Do not copy the other scripts, such as pasteConfig. Those scripts are generated when you extract the files, as in step 5.
At the target, extract the files from the archive using the pasteBinary script.
For example, to apply the clone to the directory /scratch/oracle/MW_Home_clone, use the following command:
pasteBinary.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/jrockit_160_20_D1.1.0-18
-archiveLoc /tmp/mw_clone.jar
-targetMWHomeLoc /scratch/oracle/MW_Home_clone
The Middleware home is extracted to /scratch/oracle/MW_Home_clone and the WebLogic Server home and all of the Oracle homes are extracted under it with the same names as that of the source Oracle home names.
You can clone some types of Oracle Fusion Middleware Java components, such as Oracle SOA Suite. When you do, you copy the configuration of the source domain.
When you clone Java components, you customize the properties in the Java components move plan, as described in Table 20-9. If you are using Oracle ADF, you modify the properties shown in Table 20-10.
To clone a Java component:
At the source Middleware home, make sure that the Administration Server and all Managed Servers are started.
At the source Middleware home, execute the copyConfig script to copy the domain.
For example, to clone the Oracle SOA Suite domain named SOA_domain1 in the in the Middleware home /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1, use the following command:
copyConfig.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/jrockit_160_20_D1.1.0-18
-archiveLoc /tmp/soa.jar
-sourceDomainLoc /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/user_projects/domains/SOA_domain1
-sourceMWHomeLoc /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1
-domainHostName example.com
-domainPortNum 8001
-domainAdminUserName admin_username
-domainAdminPassword /scratch/admin/passwd.txt
-logDirLoc /tmp/logs
If you are cloning the component to a different host, copy the archive file to that system.
Extract the move plan from the archive, using the extractMovePlan script. For example:
extractMovePlan.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/jrockit_160_20_D1.1.0-18
-archiveLoc /tmp/soa.jar
-planDirLoc /tmp/Oracle/t2p_plans/soa
Edit the move plan, modifying the properties listed in Table 20-9 to reflect the values for the target environment. In addition, you may need to modify additional properties, depending on the component. For example, for Oracle SOA Suite, you modify the properties in Table 20-11. In addition, you may need to edit Oracle B2B channel properties, as described in the text following Section 20.5.2.1.
At the target, extract the files from the archive using the pasteConfig script. For example, to apply the clone to the Middleware home /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1, use the following command:
pasteConfig.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/jrockit_160_20_D1.1.0-18
-archiveLoc /tmp/soa.jar
-movePlanLoc /tmp/Oracle/t2p_plans/soa/moveplan.xml
-targetDomainLoc /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/user_projects/domains/SOA_domain1
-targetMWHomeLoc /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/
-domainAdminPassword /scratch/pwd_dir/pass.txt
For considerations about cloning Oracle SOA Suite, see Section 20.5.2.1.
You can clone the domain containing Oracle SOA Suite to the same or a different Middleware home, on the same host or a different host.
To clone Oracle SOA Suite, use the procedure described in Section 20.5.2. When you run the extractMovePlan script, you modify the move plan properties described in Table 20-9 and Table 20-11.
The Oracle SOA Suite domain can be configured with multiple components. When you clone Oracle SOA Suite, the following components are also cloned along with the SOA Service Infrastructure:
Oracle BPEL Process Manager
Oracle B2B
Oracle Business Activity Monitoring
Oracle Mediator
Oracle Adapters
Oracle Business Rules
Oracle Web Services Manager Policy Manager
Oracle User Messaging Service
Fusion Middleware Control
Any Java EE application deployed to the Oracle SOA Suite domain
Any SOA Composites deployed to the Oracle SOA Suite domain
Along with the domain configuration of the preceding Oracle SOA Suite components, the component metadata of the following components is also cloned:
Oracle Web Services Manager Policy Manager
Oracle Human Workflow
Oracle B2B
Composites and applications that host their metadata in the MDS Repository
When you clone Oracle SOA Suite, you edit the properties in the move plan for Java components and the move plan for Oracle SOA Suite. The move plan properties for Java components are described in Table 20-9. The move plan properties for Oracle SOA Suite are described in Table 20-11.
In addition to the properties listed in Table 20-9 and Table 20-11, the properties for Oracle B2B channels are in the B2B Channels group. However, because B2B channels can be in various forms, there are no standard properties for a channel. When you extract a move plan, that move plan contains the properties for the current channels in the source environment. Edit the properties to specify values for the target environment.
The following example shows a portion of a move plan for B2B channels:
<movableComponent>
<componentType>B2B</componentType>
<moveDescriptor>
<configGroup>
<type>B2B Channels</type>
<configProperty id="Channel1">
<configProperty>
<name>file-param-is_binary</name>
<value></value>
<itemMetadata>
<dataType>STRING</dataType>
<scope>READ_WRITE</scope>
</itemMetadata>
</configProperty>
<configProperty>
<name>file-param-marker</name>
<value></value>
<itemMetadata>
<dataType>STRING</dataType>
<scope>READ_WRITE</scope>
</itemMetadata>
</configProperty>
You can clone the system components, such as Oracle HTTP Server or Oracle Virtual Directory.
To clone a system component:
At the source Middleware home, make sure that the Administration Server and all Managed Servers are started.
At the source Middleware home, execute the copyConfig script.
For example, to clone the Oracle HTTP Server instance named ohs1 in the Oracle instance located in /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/webtier_1, use the following command:
copyConfig.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/jrockit_160_20_D1.1.0-18
-archiveLoc /tmp/ohs1.jar
-sourceInstanceHomeLoc /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/webtier_1
-sourceComponentName ohs1
If you are cloning the component to a different host, copy the archive file to that system.
Extract the move plan from the archive, using the extractMovePlan script. For example:
extractMovePlan.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware1/jrockit_160_20_D1.1.0-18
-archiveLoc /tmp/ohs1.jar
-planDirLoc /tmp/Oracle/t2p_plans/ohs
Edit the move plan, modifying the properties for the particular component to reflect the values for the target environment:
For Oracle HTTP Server, see Table 20-12.
For Oracle Internet Directory, see Table 20-13.
For Oracle Virtual Directory, see Table 20-14.
Note that the Oracle instance name must be unique in the domain and the component name must be unique in the Oracle instance. If you are cloning the Oracle instance to the same domain, use the -targetInstanceName and -targetComponentName properties in the move plan to specify a different name for the instance and component.
At the target, extract the files from the archive using the pasteConfig script. For example, to apply the clone to the Oracle instance webtier_2 and name the cloned Oracle HTTP Server instance ohs_cl, use the following command:
pasteConfig.sh -javaHome /scratch/Oracle/Middleware/jrockit_160_20_D1.1.0-18
-archiveLoc /tmp/ohs1.jar
-movePlanLoc /tmp/Oracle/t2p_plans/ohs/moveplan.xml
-targetOracleHomeLoc /scratch/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_WebTier
-targetInstanceHomeLoc /scratch/Oracle/Middleware/webtier_2
-targetInstanceName webtier_2
-targetComponentName ohs_cl
-domainHostName myhost
-domainPortNum 7001
-domainAdminUserName domain_admin_username
-domainAdminPassword domain_admin_password_file
The following topics provide information specific to the types of system components you can clone:
You can clone Oracle HTTP Server to the same or a different Oracle instance, to the same or a different Middleware home, on the same host or a different host.
You must apply the clone to an Oracle home that contains the binaries for Oracle HTTP Server.
To clone Oracle HTTP Server, use the procedure described in Section 20.5.3.
If Oracle HTTP Server is configured with WebGate, note the following
The WebGateInstalldir property and references to this path are updated in the webgate.conf file.
The WebGate directory must be in the following directory:
Oracle_Instance/config/OHS/ohs_component_name
Modify the properties of the move plan listed in Table 20-12.
For Oracle HTTP Server, there are many configGroup elements in the move plan. Each configGroup element is associated with one Oracle HTTP Server configuration file. As a result, there may be more than one instance of a particular property, such as User.
You can clone Oracle Internet Directory to the same or a different Oracle instance, to the same or a different Middleware home, on the same host or a different host.
You must apply the clone to an Oracle home that contains the binaries for Identity Management.
To clone Oracle Internet Directory, use the procedure described in Section 20.5.3.
Table 20-13 describes the properties that you can change for the move plan for Oracle Internet Directory.
Note that under certain conditions, you may see the following errors when you clone Oracle Internet Directory:
OID Cloning: Error cleaning replication agreements OID Cloning: Error deleting replication dn OID Cloning: Error updating orclreplicaid
If you do, take the following steps:
Run the following command:
ORACLE_HOME/ldap/bin/remtool -pcleanup
When prompted, enter the OID host, non-SSL port, and the ODS schema password.
Perform an ldapsearch on the root dn for the orclreplicaid value. Use the following command:
ORACLE_HOME/bin/ldapsearch -p port -h host -b "" -s base "(objectclass=*)" orclreplicaid
Using the value in obtained in Step 2, perform an ldapdelete, deleting the following dns from Oracle Internet Directory:
cn=replication dn, orclreplicaid=<replicaid>, cn=replication configuration orclreplicaid=<replicaid>, cn=replication configuration
For example:
ldapdelete -p port -h host "cn=replication dn, orclreplicaid=replicaid, cn=replication configuration"
Set the orclreplicaid value in the root entry to 0. For example:
ORACLE_HOME/bin/ldapmodify -p port -h host -f file.ldif
The ldif file contains the following:
dn: changetype: modify replace: orclreplicaid orclreplicaid: 0
Restart Oracle Internet Directory.
You can clone Oracle Virtual Directory to the same or a different Oracle instance, to the same or a different Middleware home, on the same host or a different host.
You must apply the clone to an Oracle home that contains the binaries for Identity Management.
To clone Oracle Virtual Directory, use the procedure described in Section 20.5.3.
Table 20-14 describes the properties that you can change for the move plan for Oracle Virtual Directory.
When you clone Oracle Fusion Middleware components, you run the extractMovePlan script to create a move plan for the component that you are cloning. The extractMovePlan script extracts configuration information from the archive into a move plan. It also extracts any needed configuration plans. Before you apply the clone to the target, you must edit the move plan to reflect the values of the target environment.
The following shows an excerpt of a move plan for Java components:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<movePlan>
<movableComponent>
<componentType>J2EEDomain</componentType>
<moveDescriptor>
<configProperty>
<name>Startup Mode</name>
<value>PRODUCTION</value>
<itemMetadata>
<dataType>STRING</dataType>
<scope>READ_WRITE</scope>
</itemMetadata>
</configProperty>
<configGroup>
<type>SERVER_CONFIG</type>
<configProperty id="Server1">
<configProperty>
<name>Server Name</name>
<value>AdminServer</value>
<itemMetadata>
<dataType>STRING</dataType>
<scope>READ_ONLY</scope>
</itemMetadata>
</configProperty>
<configProperty>
<name>Listen Address</name>
<value>example.com</value>
<itemMetadata>
<dataType>STRING</dataType>
<scope>READ_WRITE</scope>
</itemMetadata>
</configProperty>
You can modify properties with the scope of READ_WRITE. Do not modify the properties with the scope of READ_ONLY.
Most move plans contain multiple configGroup elements. When a property is associated with a particular configGroup element, the tables listing the properties group the properties by configGroup element. For example Table 20-9, which shows the properties for the move plan for Java components, shows multiple configGroup elements, such as SERVER_CONFIG and MACHINE_CONFIG.
The following example shows a portion of the move plan for Java components, with portions of the SERVER_CONFIG and MACHINE_CONFIG configGroup elements:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<movePlan>

When you execute the pasteBinary or pasteConfig scripts and enter incorrect information in the move plan, the scripts return an error. In some cases, the scripts may have partially completed the paste operation. To recover, take the following actions, depending on the script that returned the error:
If the pasteBinary script returns an error during cloning the Middleware home directory at the target:
Delete the target Middleware home.
Remove the Oracle home entry from the Oracle inventory, if it is present.
For Windows, remove the shortcut for the Middleware home and Oracle home.
If the pasteConfig script returns an error during cloning Java components:
Stop all processes related to the domain.
Delete the following directories:
MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/domain_home MW_HOME/user_projects/applications/domain_name
Drop the schemas and recreate them using RCU.
In addition, if the Oracle Platform Security reassociation failed:
For an LDAP store, delete the domain node or specify a different value in the move plan.
For a database-based store, drop the schema and recreate it using RCU.
If the pasteConfig script returns an error during cloning system components:
Deinstall the instance.
If you cannot deinstall the instance, stop all processes related to that instance and delete the Oracle instance.
Note the following important additional considerations about cloning:
Cloning does not carry over all the dependencies of the source Middleware home, WebLogic Server home, and Oracle homes, such as loadable modules or application-specific libraries to the cloned home, because cloning proceeds by copying the Middleware home and the entire source WebLogic Server home and Oracle homes to the destination Middleware home. Any files outside the source WebLogic Server or Oracle home are not automatically copied. Hence, any applications that refer to files outside the source WebLogic Server or Oracle home may not work properly in the cloned home.
The Oracle home cloned as a part of the Middleware home contains only the binary files.
When you clone a Middleware home, only the read-only portions of the Middleware home are cloned. Any user configuration files, such a the user_projects directory, are excluded from the cloned image. The WebLogic Server domain is not cloned.
You must ensure that components, such as Oracle WebLogic Server and Oracle Coherence, are installed in the directory structure of the source Middleware home.
You cannot clone a Middleware Home if its path is a symbolic link.
If you created symbolic links to files or applications outside the source WebLogic Server or Oracle home, you must re-create the link manually in the cloned home for your applications to work properly.
If you are applying the clone of a Middleware home on a host that does not yet have Oracle Fusion Middleware installed, the host must have JDK 1.6.04 or higher installed. In addition, the PATH, CLASSPATH, and JAVA_HOME environment variables must point to the JDK.
If a custom application uses an internal data source (for example, the application was created and deployed with an internal data source using JDeveloper), the internal data source is not migrated during the clone operation.
To work around this, create an external data source in the domain, modify the application to use that data source, and deploy the application again.
If an Oracle Internet Directory component is cloned with the same database credentials as the source component, the name of the cloned OID component should be different than the source component to avoid conflicts in the OID schema.
If an Oracle Internet Directory component is cloned with different database credentials from the source component, the name of the cloned Oracle Internet Directory component should be the same as the source component to avoid conflicts in the OID schema.
You cannot clone Oracle Directory Integration Platform and Oracle Directory Service Manager. You must install them on the target.
If there is not enough space in the temporary directory when you are cloning an entity, an error is returned, noting the space needed. To work around this problem, specify a different location for the temporary directory by using the T2P_JAVA_OPTIONS environment variable as described in Section 20.4.
