Creating/renaming a clone database

Creating/renaming a clone database

I have database #1 on a server that I want to clone/restore from a cold
backup so that it becomes database #2.  Database #2 wiill be on the same
server as #1 but I want to rename it.  Other than creating a new directory
structure and recreating the controlfile with all the new info, is there
anything else that I need to do?    Do you have to alter anything within the
database (file names/structures) or will recreating the controlfile take
care of it?

I don't want to bring the database up as the old SID because the SID already
exists on that server so if something does have to be altered, I am not sure
how to do it in this scenario.

Thanks for your help.
