Replicating a Parameter Template

Scenarios

You can replicate a parameter template you have created. When you have already created a parameter template and want to include most of the custom parameters and values from that template in a new parameter template, you can replicate that parameter template. You can also replicate the parameter template to generate a new parameter template for future use.

After a parameter template is replicated, the new template may be displayed about 5 minutes later.

Default parameter templates cannot be replicated. You can create parameter templates based on the default ones.

Procedure

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Click in the upper left corner and select a region and project.

   

3. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Databases > GaussDB.
4. On the Parameter Templates page, click Custom Templates. Locate the parameter template and click Replicate in the Operation column.

   Alternatively, click the instance name on the Instances page. On the Parameters page, click Replicate to generate a new parameter template for future use.

5. In the displayed dialog box, configure required information and click OK.
   • The template name must consist of 1 to 64 characters. It can contain only uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, hyphens (-), underscores (_), and periods (.).
   • The description contains up to 256 characters, but cannot contain carriage returns and special characters (>!<"&'=).

   After the parameter template is replicated, a new template is generated in the list on the Customer Templates tab of the Parameter Templates page.
