    This blog post details the steps for cloning an Oracle Database Home from an existing Oracle Home to another server, applicable to both RAC and Single Instance environments. Cloning is preferred over reinstalling, particularly for legacy systems with unique patches when original installation setups are unavailable. The process involves creating a tar file of the source, setting up the target, and executing cloning commands to ensure successful cloning and validation of the new Oracle Home.
