Hi Steve,

So can't you unplug and plug it again?
I've just checked and unplug/plug with nocopy and PATH_PREFIX=none can help:

SQL> CREATE PLUGGABLE DATABASE pdb2 ADMIN USER testuser identified by
testuser
  create_file_dest='/opt/oracle/oradata/ORA18/PDB2/oradata'
  PATH_PREFIX='/opt/oracle/oradata/ORA18/PDB2/dirs';

Pluggable database created.

SQL> ALTER PLUGGABLE DATABASE pdb2 UNPLUG INTO
'/opt/oracle/oradata/ORA18/PDB2/PDB2.xml';

Pluggable database altered.

SQL> DROP PLUGGABLE DATABASE pdb2 *KEEP DATAFILES*;

Pluggable database dropped.

SQL> CREATE PLUGGABLE DATABASE pdb2 using
'/opt/oracle/oradata/ORA18/PDB2/PDB2.xml' *nocopy PATH_PREFIX=none*;

Pluggable database created.

SQL> alter pluggable database pdb2 open;

Pluggable database altered.

SQL> alter session set container=pdb2;

Session altered.

SQL> create directory test as '/tmp/test';

Directory created.

my solution?  How would I manage to go about that ?

Have you looked at the "cp" command in the asmcmd utility? That allows
files to be copied into and out of ASm, apparently.

Other, possible, options are the procedure DBMS_FILE_TRANSFER.COPY_FILE
but that appears to only allow database files to be copied into AMD. :(
