When you use the SNAPSHOT COPY clause to create a clone of a source PDB and the CLONEDB initialization parameter is set to FALSE, the underlying file system for the source PDB's files must support storage snapshots. Such file systems include Oracle Automatic Storage Management Cluster File System (Oracle ACFS) and Direct NFS Client storage.
ou can query the CLONETAG column ofDBA_PDB_HISTORY view to view clone tags for storage clones.
Thin Provisioning and Instantaneous Cloning: The Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Advantage
The Oracle Multitenant architecture is integrated with Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance, which provides unlimited snapshots and cloning services.
A snapshot is a read-only point-in-time copy of a file system. It is instantaneously created and no space is allocated initially. Blocks are allocated as changes are made to the base file system. Any reads to the snapshot blocks are served by the base file system's block. When changes happen to the base file system, the older block is then referenced by the snapshot and the new, changed block is referenced by the file system.
A clone is an instantaneously created read-writable copy of a snapshot. One or more clones can be created from a single snapshot. These clones are presented to users as a normal file system. Similar to snapshots, when a clone is created, no space is allocated. The reads of the clone are served by the base file system's blocks. The changed blocks are allocated only when the blocks are changed in the clone. Since space is shared between snapshots and clones, and since a snapshot may have multiple clones, a snapshot cannot be destroyed without also destroying any active clones.
You can use the CREATE PLUGGABLE DATABASE statement to clone a PDB. This technique clones a source PDB and plugs the clone into the CDB. To use this technique, you must include a FROM clause that specifies the source PDB.
The source PDB is the existing PDB that is copied. The target PDB is the clone of the source PDB. The CREATE PLUGGABLE DATABASE statement copies the files associated with the source PDB to a new location and associates the files with the target PDB. The source PDB needs to be in read-only mode in order to be cloned.
If your source PDB is on Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance, you can create a snapshot clone of that PDB by merely adding a snapshot copy clause to the CREATE PLUGGABLE DATABASE command. When an Oracle Database client issues a CREATE PLUGGABLE DATABASE SQL statement with a snapshot copy clause, Oracle Database logs in to Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance and creates a snapshot of the file system on which the source PDB resides, and it promotes that snapshot as a clone on Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance. The clone creation on Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance is instantaneous and no space is initially allocated to that clone.
When you use the snapshot copy clause to create a clone of a source PDB, the following restrictions apply to the source PDB as long as any clones exist:
It cannot be unplugged.
It cannot be dropped.
Storage clones are named and tagged using the new PDB GUID
. You can query the CLONETAG column of the DBA_PDB_HISTORY view to view clone tags for storage clones.
