This topic describes the procedure for exporting a virtual database (VDB) to a physical one, also known as V2P.

Requirements

Before you perform the V2P operation, you must have created a database on the target instance into which you will load the exported data. It must be sufficiently large, and you must have created it with the for load SAP ASE option.

The Delphix Engine will initiate a load command using the database specified. The V2P operation will overwrite any existing data in this database.

  3. Select the snapshot of the dSource or VDB state you want to export.

  4. Click V2P.
