Revert a database (sandbox) clone to its original version at the time of creation in NetApp Workload Factory for Databases.

About this task

When you clone a database, the clone at creation is a baseline clone. The data in the cloned database is the same as the source database at the time of creation. As data in a database clone changes over time, you might want to revert the data back to the baseline when the clone was first created. This operation is called re-baselining a clone. Re-baselining a clone rather than creating a new clone saves space; however, any changes made to the database clone will be deleted.

Steps

  1. Log in using one of the console experiences.

  2. In the Databases tile, select Go to Databases inventory.

  3. From the Databases menu, select Sandboxes.

  4. In Sandboxes, select the action menu of the database clone you want to revert.

  5. Select Re-baseline.

  6. In the Re-baseline dialog, select Re-baseline.
