In BlueXP workload factory for Databases, splitting a sandbox clone from its source database creates a new database which will consume a certain amount of storage capacity. The clone gets deleted when the split is complete and the new database appears in the Inventory.

Before you begin

Consider how much storage capacity is needed for the new database. If needed, increase file system capacity for the FSx for ONTAP file system before you begin.

Steps

  1. Log in using one of the console experiences.

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

  3. In Databases, select the Sandboxes tab.

  4. In the Sandboxes tab, click the three dots menu of the sandbox clone you want to split.

  5. Select Split.

  6. In the Split dialog, click Split.
