Cloning Your Environment

The Clone Environment feature is a screen-based way to clone an environment and, optionally, identity domain artifacts (users and predefined role assignments), and contents of the inbox, outbox, and stored snapshots.

This feature is an alternative to using the Clone Environment EPM Automate command.

To clone your Enterprise Profitability and Cost Management enviroment:

  1. Sign in to Enterprise Profitability and Cost Management as a Service Administrator or as a Service Administrator, who also has the Identity Domain Administrator predefined role.

  2. From the Home page, select Tools, and then Clone Evironment.

  3. In Target URL, enter the URL of the environment that will become the cloned environment; for example, https://testExample-idDomain.pbcs.us1.oraclecloud.com.

  4. In Username, enter the user name of a Service Administrator who may also have the Identity Domain Administrator predefined role. For Oracle Cloud Classic to OCI cloning, you must enter the user name of a user who has Service Administrator and Identity Domain Administrator predefined roles in the target environment. This user must be able to log into the target environment using identity domain credentials.

  5. In Password, enter the identity domain password of the user specified in Username.

  6. Optional: Deselect the Data Management check box if you do not want to clone Data Management records. Cloning of Data Management records may take a long time if the staging tables contain a very large number of records.

  7. Optional: Select the Stored Snapshots and Files check box if you want to clone the contents of inbox and outbox, and stored snapshots. This process may take a long time depending on the number and size of stored snapshots and files in inbox and outbox.

  8. Click Clone to initiate the process.
