The way you have done homogeneous System copy ,same way you can do system copy with different SID.

You have to take online of oflline backof your system.

Create the control file to trace from source system

alter database copy control file to trace ;

Restore backup into target system.

copy control.trc into taget system

Edit the control trace file and change following line to

CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "SRC SID" NORESETLOGS ARCHIVELOG

to

CREATE CONTROLFILE REUSE DATABASE "SRCSID" RESETLOGS ARCHIVELOG

and add just below it as

set database u2018SIDu2019 --->New sid

Please move the control file from source system into different location after restoration of backup into the target system.

AND THEN DO THE RECOVERY.

It will recreate your new system with new SID.

Thanks

Hi Vijay,

You will get system copy guides for different releases in the service marketplace.

There is different methods for system copy between different SID.

1} Backup/restore method

2} Export/import method. etc

In export/import method you need to export the database using sapinst and simply install the new system with this export rather than using the exports cds.

In backup/restore method take the complete offline backup of source system,build the new ststem (normal installation) then restore the new system from the backup of source.The exact steps mentioned in the copy guide.
