Snapcenter Nested Clones of Oracle Databases

[darraghos]

Is it possible to nest clones of Oracle Databases in Snapcenter 4.4 i.e. create a backup and then a clone and then create a new clone form that clone?

Yes, Clone of cloned DB is supported in SnapCenter only till level 2.

@mrahul thanks for taking the time to reply. I cannot find this option in the UI though?

workflow should be something like

1) Protect your source DB

2) Take backup

3) Select the backup and create clone from it

4) Protect the cloned DB

5) Take a backup of the clone DB

6) Select the backup and create clone ( This will be your clone of clone)
