Hi newbieDBA,
1.8 TB is the rough threshold where Clone switches from using one image format (one that's backwards-compatible with older versions of Windows, e.g. Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2) to a newer format that only works on more modern versions of Windows. It sounds your installation of Clone is having issues creating images in the newer format. We'll probably need to have a look at your Clone logs to sort things out. The best option is to get in touch with support@red-gate.com, who are best equipped to get this solved - they'll track the issue and solve it with the dev team.

Hi TRue, the fix is still on the way - it didn't make its way into 3.1.7 after all unfortunately, but you can expect it in 3.1.8. Sorry for the delay! / comments

Hi Shawn, There definitely won't be any need to start over - your existing SQL Clone agents will notice when you install Data Masker alongside them, and will use it to mask images during creation. It'll just be a matter of installing Data Masker alongside the agents, using its GUI to create a masking set file, and supplying that file while creating an image. Here's a bit of documentation to get you started, and feel free to get in touch with support or sales if you need more time to evaluate. / comments

That's unusual! It might be simplest to raise a ticket with support@red-gate.com, so that we can suss things out from the SQL Clone/SQL Server log files. I'll post any solution in this thread for future reference. / comments

Not a lot to go on! While the SQL Clone Server doesn't currently need .NET 4.7.2, the Agent service does, and will ask you if you're happy for it to download and install that version if it's not already installed. It sounds like this time it wasn't able to, possibly due to network difficulties. Does the machine have access to the Internet? What happens if you try to install .NET 4.7.2 yourself? / comments

Hi ravi, We've done some internal investigation and have been able to reproduce the issue on a machine with .NET v4.6.2 installed. There's a couple of options that fall out of that. You can either: 1) update .NET to v4.7.2 on the machine where you're trying to install Clone Server, or 2) install SQL Clone 3.0.7, which will resolve this issue without needing to update .NET (but you'll have to wait for us to release it, because the latest released version is still 3.0.6 [image] ) Thanks for reporting this!

Hi again - SQL Clone 3.0.7 has just been released, and should fix this issue for you. / comments

Thanks! That ought to be fine. Best bet is to check the application event log for errors, in that case. You can access that by hitting Win-R and running eventvwr, then accessing Windows Logs, and Application. Look for anything under the SQL Clone Server Setup source. / comments

Hi ravi, Thanks for bringing this to our attention. There might be some more detail (including the nature of the error) about this issue in your machine's application event log. Could you tell us which version of SQL Clone you're trying to install? Thanks! Owen / comments

Hi Robb, There's an installer available from your SQL Clone server UI that will install the PowerShell cmdlets you need. You can download it from: http://your-sql-clone-server:14145/settings/powershell If you run the installer, close any open PowerShell windows, then open one up again, the cmdlets should be available. Hope that helps! Owen / comments
