GOAL

Can RMAN Active Duplicate be used with two different versions? I.e., can I use active duplicate to clone a database between 12.1.0.1 source (target) to 12.1.0.2 destination (auxiliary)?

SOLUTION

In 12c, RMAN compatibility has been simplified so that the RMAN.exe must match that of the database. In most cases, it isn't an issue except with RMAN duplicate which requires a connection to more than one database using one RMAN executable.

For backup based duplication, the duplicate can be accomplished without a target connection. However, for active duplicate, this is not an option.

So, backup the question:

"Can I use active duplicate to clone a database between 12.1.0.1 source (target) to 12.1.0.2 destination (auxiliary)?"

No, you cannot do this with active duplicate.

If you use 12.1.0.1 rman, you get error:

RMAN-06429: AUXILIARY database is not compatible with this version of RMAN
RMAN-06618: RMAN client and database release mismatch; indicated

If you use 12.1.0.2 rman, you get error:

RMAN-06429: TARGET database is not compatible with this version of RMAN
RMAN-06618: RMAN client and database release mismatch; indicated

The RMAN-06429 will indicate which database (TARGET/AUXILIARY) is not compatible with the RMAN executable being used.
