Abstract
A database server instance automatically detects configuration issues when a pluggable database (PDB) is plugged into a new destination container database (CDB). The database server instance identifies one or more update templates, within the destination CDB, that, when run over the relocated PDB, will update the configuration of the PDB to conform to the configuration of the destination CDB. Instead of requiring an administrator to initiate update scripts from a DBMS kernel to reconfigure a PDB, the DBMS creates the update templates by recording commands run within PDBs in connection with system updates. These recorded update templates may then be run over relocated PDBs, to configure the PDBs according to the configuration of the destination CDB. Further, the update templates may be pre-recorded update templates, which record commands to perform configuration updates, to PDBs, that have never before been performed within the CDB.
