In the 19c Primary database, where I want to create NEWPDB as a no-data clone of ORCLPDB1 :
SQL> select con_id, name, open_mode from v$pdbs; CON_ID ---------- NAME -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- OPEN_MODE ---------- 2 PDB$SEED READ ONLY 3 ORCLPDB1 READ WRITE SQL> alter pluggable database ORCLPDB1 close; Pluggable database altered.

Notice how the NEWPDB does NOT have a USERS datafile as I specified "user_tablespaces=NONE".
Also note that while the ORCLPDB1 had a different naming format, NEWPDB relies on what I have specified as "db_create_file_dest" to create Oracle Managed Files as datafiles (incuding the Undo Tablespace datafile)
Also, the "no data" ensures that no user data is copied, only the database template(data dictionary) is copied. User-created tables and indexes are excluded. (should we test to see which types of user-created objects are included/excluded ?)
The source PDB had to be Read Only but the cloned NEWDB is not OPEN when created.
I have a Service called "newpdb" created for the new PDB.

How and when does the PDB propagate to the Standby ?
After I issue
The Standby alert log shows :
The datafiles at the Standby are also created as as Oracle Managed Files, relying on "db_create_file_dest". But the alert log messages clearly show that it did a *local* copy of the datafiles from ORCLPDB1 instead of copying the new datafiles across the network.
SQL> alter system archive log current; System altered. SQL>

(I've posted the alert log entries of the Primary database in the next blog post here).
