How to Move PDB datafiles  to ASM Disk Group


Moving PDB related data files to ASM diskgroup. 

PDB name: FUAT
CDB name: funcdb

The PDB will be moved to a ASM disk group called EBS_PDB.

1. Run a RMAN backup as copy to create data files copies in the destination diskgroup.


RMAN> backup as copy pluggable database FUAT format '+EBS_PDB';
