(originally published at Pythian)
Its all started from the question on communities.oracle.com
An "enhancement" in 11.2 prevents RMAN duplicating non self-contained subset of a database
where new feature of RMAN in 11.2 was shown which prevents duplication of sets of tablespaces if they are not self-contained.
I took debug of duplication and figured out that RMAN internally executes procedure dbms_tts.transport_set_check
preventing any further copy operations if tablespaces do not satisfy TTS requirements.
Now the plot thickens and considering RMAN shows everything that it does in log file I decided to repeat the same steps
but one by one and manually.
First of all I took log of successful duplication for the database but only for one
self-contained tablespace 'T'
rman target sys/pwd@//oel5/d122 auxiliary sys/...@temp \
cmdfile=duplicate_wts.cmd debug trace=wts.out
Recovery Manager: Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production on ...

RMAN-06005: connected to target database: D122 (DBID=3977667195)
RMAN-06549: connected to auxiliary database: TEMP (not mounted)
run {
duplicate target database to temp from active database
tablespace 'T'
spfile
set db_file_name_convert '/u02/oradata/d122', '/u02/oradata/temp'
set log_file_name_convert '/u02/oradata/d122', '/u02/oradata/temp'
set sga_target '600M';
}
exit
It produced the output of commands executed by RMAN internally
and went successfully opening database with resetlogs but failed
on the step of dropping not copied tablespaces since they were not self-contained.

RMAN-05501: aborting duplication of target database RMAN-06136: ORACLE error from auxiliary database:

But I got the code that was performed by RMAN during duplication
and generally those blocks were headed by message
"RMAN-08161: contents of Memory Script:"
although had to add "CREATE CONTROLFILE" block as well:

Based on the code generated by RMAN I created my own block
but had to divide it on several portions where first part
included all actions before copy of archive logs to auxiliary site
because of simple reason - I was not able to provide max SCN in latest sequence
(which will be generated by "sql 'alter system archive log current';")
at the time of script start and there is no such variable as current latest
sequence or SCN number:
run {
backup as copy reuse

shutdown clone immediate;
startup clone force nomount

alter clone database mount;

set newname for datafile 1 to "/u02/oradata/temp/system01.dbf";
set newname for datafile 2 to "/u02/oradata/temp/sysaux01.dbf";

}
The code ran without problems, I took latest SCN and sequence number
and tried to copy them to auxiliary side but got error due to non-existed
directory for archive logs and had to create it manually.
Going forward, I was able to catalog data files copies and switched to them
with further successful recovery. However, everything of that was done
at auxiliary side with connection to it as "target".
Trying to do it with clone clause from primary side I was not able to catalog
copies and recovery failed restoring data files.
Skipping that not clear part yet, I proceed further and changed the name
from D122 to TEMP in spfile although could not find one of "shutdown"
operations being presented in printed "memory scripts".
And here started the part which I could not understand for a long time -
creation of controlfile with system data file and catalog operation of rest
of data files which were copied. It was my understanding that control file
should be created with all required data files and there is no other way to
"catalog" datafile copies in control file. But following RMAN "recipe" I took contents of
the code, recreated control file and cataloged datafiles, but switch operation failed:

I checked trace file of RMAN duplicate trying to find any hidden commands,
checked notes about duplicate on MOS, even created SR for it but
did not get the answer how RMAN does it.
And finally command "set newname for tempfile ..." revealed the secret -
set newname should be executed in the same block where datafile copies
are cataloged! As simple as that!
I set names for copies, "cataloged" them, opened database with resetlogs
and got the same picture for other files in v$datafile as when RMAN did duplication
