Clone Pluggable Database

Use this dialog box to clone a PDB. It creates a new PDB from (using basic specifications of) a specified PDB.

Database Name: Name of the new PDB.

Source PDB: Source PDB for the cloning operation.

Database Link: If the source PDB is in a remote CDB, specify the name of the database link to use for connecting to the remote CDB.

Storage: You can specify storage limits for the PDB total size or temporary tablespace usage, or both; or unlimited storage for either or both.

File Name Conversions: Determines how the database generates the names of files (such as data files and wallet files) for the PDB.

None: The database first attempts to use Oracle Managed Files to generate file names. If you are not using Oracle Managed Files, then the database uses the PDB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT initialization parameter to generate file names.
Custom Names: Select a Source Files/Target Files pair.
Custom Expressions: Specify one or more Source File Expression/Target File Expression pairs. Each pair item is a string found in names of files associated with the seed (when creating a PDB by using the seed), associated with the source PDB (when cloning a PDB), or listed in the XML file (when plugging a PDB into a CDB).
