If your clone on DB Tier fails while running txkConfigDBOcm.pl  (Check metalink note – 415020.1)
During clone step on DB Tier it prompts for “Target System base directory for source homes” and during this you have to give like /base_install_dir like ../../r12 and not oracle home like ../../r12/db/tech_st_10.2.0
