About that step #12: One more thing you might need if using a common rman
catalog is to change the database ID.  It's very easy to smoke the database
if you don't do follow the steps for using dbms_backup_restore.zerodbid(0)
exactly.

I do development so please bare with the stupid question. To copy an
instance I do the following right? 
1. Shut down the instance
2. Copy all data files to the new locations
3. Change the DB_NAME, dump directories, and redo log paths in the init.ora
file
4. startup nomount. Rename the redo logs
5. Create control file
6. Open database.

I think Im missing some steps.
