Guidelines

These are cloning guidelines:
  • Refresh is allowed only between tenants of the same customer. Note these restrictions:
    • A production tenant cannot be refreshed from any other tenant.
    • A customer’s non-production tenant cannot be refreshed from another customer’s tenant.
    • Some applications/environments are refreshed as one product, for example: Infor OS core.
    • The source and target tenants must have the same app version.
    • Only full copies of tenants are supported at this time (app restriction).
  • CSP ensures that the source tenant and target tenant are the same version by invoking the getVersion farm level API.
  • The source tenant is always a live tenant that is patched or upgraded as part of the standard patching cycle. Restoring from static snapshot files is not supported.
  • The source tenant may or may not be deactivated. It is recommended, however, that the source tenant be deactivated.
  • The destination tenant is always deactivated before data is restored to it.
  • Concurrent snapshot or restoration requests to a tenant are not supported by CSP. CSP ensures that only one snapshot or restoration request is invoked against a tenant at a given time.
  • In the event of a failure, the destination tenant is not rolled back. CSP provides an option to resume the process provided the applications support it.
