Configuring NFS to copy database files from PROD to TEST (Cloning)

Problem:

Need to configure NFS to copy files from PROD to TEST.

Solution:

On ebusinesstest (TEST) server, use the NFS tool to create the /etc/exports file with the following data:

/u0/oracle/testdata      *(rw,sync)

On ebusiness (PROD) server, log on as the root user and mount the exported directory:

mkdir /mnt/tempdata

mount -t nfs ebusinesstest:/u0/oracle/testdata /mnt/testdata/
