In the Activity Log, what is the random Agent deletion entries for SQL Clone?

andrewgibson

Within SQL Clone and the Activity Log - I have random entries for an agent deleting something, unsure what it is but I have attached what I am seeing. 



This is what is held within the log generated.



I am just looking for clarification as to what this is deleting?

Thanks

Hi, thank you for your forum post.

I believe I provided this answer to you via a Redgate Support ticket as follows:

To answer your question:

I am just looking for clarification as to what this is deleting?

 
From the screen shot:
 

 
The items successfully deleted items are all Clones.  I come to this answer as icon to the left of the blacked out server name indicates a Clone.
 
There is a different icon if an image was deleted or created, as per the example my screen shot below:
 

 
There are two methods for deleting clones (and images), the manual method via the Web UI and selecting the clone or image to delete.  Or via an automation job using the PowerShell cmdlets to delete clones or images or both.
 
Further information regarding SQL Clone can be found in the help documentation:

Plus there are Redgate University video courses to help you understand how to use SQL Clone:
