psm jcs clone-service

This command allows you to clone a new service from an existing snapshot.

A snapshot is an image of a complete service instance that you can create by using the psm jcs create-snapshot command. You can see details of a snapshot by using the psm jcs snapshot command or view a list of all snapshots by using the psm jcs snapshots command.

Command Option	Description
-c|—config-payload pathToJson	Specifies the path to a JSON file containing the instance-cloning information necessary to clone a Java Cloud Service instance. The format of this file, as shown in Sample Payload, is the same as the request body you provide when cloning a Java Cloud Service instance by using the REST API. For information about this format, see the Request/Body (create-postrequestm) section of Create a Service Instance in the REST API for Oracle Java Cloud Service.
-of|-–output-format json|html|short	(Optional) Output format of the command’s response: Accepted values: json, html, short The default output format is the one you specified when using the psm setup command to configure the psm CLI.
-wc|--wait-until-complete true|false	(Optional) A boolean value that, when set to true, makes the command behave synchronously; that is, it does not return until the submitted job is complete. The following message is displayed until the job is complete: Waiting for the job to complete... (it cannot be cancelled) Default: false

Note:

You can find parameter descriptions for this sample payload the Request/Body (create-postrequestm) section of Create a Service Instance in the REST API for Oracle Java Cloud Service.

Example

$ psm jcs clone-service -c c://home/templates/my-cloned-payload.json

Note that this command returned a job ID. To see the status of your clone-service operation, use this ID with the psm jcs operation-status command:

$ psm jcs operation-status -j 34211 -of json

When you see the message:

 "operationId":364,
 "operationType":"CREATE_SERVICE",
 "serviceId":364,
 "serviceName":"Example1Instance",
 "serviceType":"jaas",
 "startDate":"2016-04-28T17:04:41.931+0000",
 "status":"SUCCEED",
 "summaryMessage":"CREATE_SERVICE"

the service was successfully created (cloned).
