gcloud alpha sql instances clone

NAME: gcloud alpha sql instances clone - clones a Cloud SQL instance
SYNOPSIS: gcloud alpha sql instances clone SOURCE DESTINATION [--allocated-ip-range-name=ALLOCATED_IP_RANGE_NAME] [--async] [--preferred-secondary-zone=PREFERRED_SECONDARY_ZONE] [--preferred-zone=PREFERRED_ZONE] [--bin-log-file-name=BIN_LOG_FILE_NAME --bin-log-position=BIN_LOG_POSITION | [--point-in-time=POINT_IN_TIME : --restore-database-name=RESTORE_DATABASE_NAME]] [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG …]
DESCRIPTION: (ALPHA) gcloud alpha sql instances clone creates a clone of a Cloud SQL instance. The clone is an independent copy of the source instance with the same data and settings. Source and destination instances must be in the same project. An instance can be cloned from its current state, or from an earlier point in time.
For MySQL: The binary log coordinates or timestamp (point in time), if specified, act as the point in time the source instance is cloned from. If not specified, the current state of the instance is cloned.
For PostgreSQL: The point in time, if specified, defines a past state of the instance to clone. If not specified, the current state of the instance is cloned.
For SQL Server: The point in time, if specified, defines a past state of the instance to clone. If not specified, the current state of the instance is cloned.
EXAMPLES: To clone an instance from its current state (most recent binary log coordinates):
gcloud alpha sql instances clone instance-foo instance-bar

To clone a MySQL instance from an earlier point in time (past binary log coordinates):
gcloud alpha sql instances clone instance-foo instance-bar --bin-log-file-name mysql-bin.000020 --bin-log-position 170

To clone a MySQL source instance at a specific point in time:
gcloud alpha sql instances clone instance-foo instance-bar --point-in-time '2012-11-15T16:19:00.094Z'

To clone a PostgreSQL source instance at a specific point in time:
gcloud alpha sql instances clone instance-foo instance-bar --point-in-time '2012-11-15T16:19:00.094Z'

To clone a SQL Server source instance at a specific point in time:
gcloud alpha sql instances clone instance-foo instance-bar --point-in-time '2012-11-15T16:19:00.094Z'

To specify the allocated IP range for the private IP target Instance (reserved for future use):
gcloud alpha sql instances clone instance-foo instance-bar --allocated-ip-range-name range-bar
POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS: SOURCE

Cloud SQL instance ID of the source.

DESTINATION

Cloud SQL instance ID of the clone.
FLAGS: --allocated-ip-range-name=ALLOCATED_IP_RANGE_NAME

The name of the IP range allocated for the destination instance with private network connectivity. For example: 'google-managed-services-default'. If set, the destination instance IP is created in the allocated range represented by this name. Reserved for future use.

--async

Return immediately, without waiting for the operation in progress to complete.

--preferred-secondary-zone=PREFERRED_SECONDARY_ZONE

The preferred secondary zone for the cloned regional instance. If you specify a value for this flag, then the destination instance uses the value as the secondary zone. The secondary zone can't be the same as the primary zone.

--preferred-zone=PREFERRED_ZONE

The preferred zone for the cloned instance. If you specify a value for this flag, then the destination instance uses the value as the primary zone.

At most one of these can be specified:

Binary log coordinates for point-in-time recovery.

--bin-log-file-name=BIN_LOG_FILE_NAME

The name of the binary log file. Enable point-in-time recovery on the source instance to create a binary log file. If specified with <--bin-log-position> to form a valid binary log coordinate, it defines an earlier point in time to clone a source instance from. For example, mysql-bin.000001.
This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--bin-log-position=BIN_LOG_POSITION

Represents the state of an instance at any given point in time inside a binary log file. If specified along with <--bin-log-file-name> to form a valid binary log coordinate, it defines an earlier point in time to clone a source instance from. For example, 123 (a numeric value).
This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--point-in-time=POINT_IN_TIME

Represents the state of an instance at any given point in time inside a transaction log file. For MySQL, the binary log file is used for transaction logs. For PostgreSQL, the write-ahead log file is used for transaction logs. For SQL Server, the log backup file is used for such purpose. To create a transaction log, enable point-in-time recovery on the source instance. Instance should have transaction logs accumulated up to the point in time they want to restore up to. Uses RFC 3339 format in UTC timezone. If specified, defines a past state of the instance to clone. For example, '2012-11-15T16:19:00.094Z'.
This flag argument must be specified if any of the other arguments in this group are specified.

--restore-database-name=RESTORE_DATABASE_NAME

The name of the database to be restored for a point-in-time restore. If set, the destination instance will only restore the specified database.
GCLOUD WIDE FLAGS: These flags are available to all commands: --access-token-file, --account, --billing-project, --configuration, --flags-file, --flatten, --format, --help, --impersonate-service-account, --log-http, --project, --quiet, --trace-token, --user-output-enabled, --verbosity.
Run $ gcloud help for details.
NOTES: This command is currently in alpha and might change without notice. If this command fails with API permission errors despite specifying the correct project, you might be trying to access an API with an invitation-only early access allowlist. These variants are also available:
