11	Start RMAN DB restoration.
12	Disable Archive log mode only for STAGE & DEV instances.
13	Ensure UNDO tablespace exists for each database instance.
14	Verify the redolog entries in the database
15	Ensure diskgroup for the target DB is online on all nodes
16	Register database and instances with Oracle Cluster Registry (OCR)
17	Verify database status using srvctl.
18	Create local and remote listener tnsnames.ora aliases using netca
19	Check the status of listener using srvctl
	Configure the DB Tier
1	Run fnd_conc_clone.setup_clean as APPS user from node1
2	Generate  Context files on Database nodes. primary DB node
3	Generate Context file on primary DB node
4	Configure the RDBMS home.
5	Run the library update script against the RAC database.
6	Configure the primary target database
7	Create softlink of of init.ora under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
8	Generate Context file on secondary DB node.
9	Configure RDBMS homes on secondary DB nodes.
10	Update tnsnames/listener/sqlnet files under $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin on all DB nodes.
11	Update the listener/database environment in OCR
12	Run  autoconfig in all DB nodes.
13	Restart database and listeners
	Application Clone
1	Verify nfs mount options of Application file system.
2	Remove Target Application Binaries and Copy EBSapps content from Source RUN edition
3	Configure the Target Primary application RUN edition.
4	Run adpreclone.pl on the run edition file system in the Target System.
5	Copy the run edition file system to the patch edition file system in the Target System.
6	Configure the Target Primary application PATCH edition.
7	Verify and Update the $CONTEXT_FILE in RUN edition on primary node.
8	Verify and Update the $CONTEXT_FILE in PATCH edition on primary node.
9	Run autoconfig in both RUN And PATCH edition on primary node.
