Hi BV1963,

Thanks for your reply.

What you say is what the documentations say, unfortunatly I found out that the documentation is wrong. RMAN fails to duplicate a DB if you skip a tablespace containting partitions of a table which also have partitions located in other tablesapces.

In case you should realy have been able to duplicate a DB via RMAN and skip a tablespace containting a partition of a partitioned table, I would be glade if you could explain me step by step how you did it.
