Usage
The ENABLE_SNAPSHOT_COPY configuration parameter determines whether you can create a clone of a server using the ifxclone utility. Set the ENABLE_SNAPSHOT_COPY configuration parameter to 1 to allow cloning. Set the value to 0 to prohibit cloning the server using the ifxclone utility.
The parallelism of ifxclone utility is based on BAR_MAX_BACKUP configuration parameter. The ifxclone utility will start a parallel copy of the source instance only if BAR_MAX_BAKCUP is set to 2 or higher.
If you created a server during installation, the ENABLE_SNAPSHOT_COPY configuration parameter is enabled automatically.
