DBAs,

I tried to use rman to create a standby database to the remote server. The primary database is on oracle 9.2.
The primary and the standby databases have different names.
primary: odewk standbyyewk

I followed the instructions to create the standby controlfile:
COPY CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY TO ....

But when I issued the :
ORA-01103: database name 'ODEWK' in controlfile is not 'OYEWK'

Does that mean the standby must have the same name as the primary database?

FYI: the following is the whole output

DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY NOFILENAMECHECK DORECOVER;

I got the following errors:

RMAN> DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY NOFILENAMECHECK DORECOVER;
