Oracle Error ORA-01228: SET DATABASE option required to install seed database

Oracle Error Message

ORA-01228: SET DATABASE option required to install seed database

Reason for the Error

The SET DATABASE option was not included in the CREATE CONTROLFILE command when installing a seed database. The database does not have a database ID because it is intended to be installed at multiple sites, and each site needs to be a different database with its own database id. Both the SET DATABASE and RESETLOGS options must be specified to create the control file for this database.

Solution

Resubmit command with the SET DATABASE and RESETLOGS options.
