param_copy

You copy the parameter file of an existing database instance and use this copy as the initial configuration for a database instance. All changes made to the database parameter file up to this point are overwritten by the copy.

The exceptions to this are the parameters RunDirectoryPath and KernelVersion, and all volume parameters, since these have properties that prevent them from being copied. These parameters retain the values from the default parameter file.

Prerequisites

You have opened a parameter session (see: param_startsession).
You have the server authorization InstallMgm.
