		<description><![CDATA[You can choose a DBID when you rename your Oracle database. This is probably a bad, unsupported, and useless idea. I assume this hidden feature can help you to mess up all your backups. So my advice would be: &#8220;don&#8217;t use it.&#8221; I performed this test with Oracle 11.1.0.7 on Linux x86.
