Abstract

A system and method include creating, by an Availability Group (“AG”) controller in a virtual computing system, a first AG clone from a source database. The source database is stored on a primary replica node of an AG of the virtual computing system. The system and method also include creating, by the Controller, a second AG clone from the first AG clone and storing, by the Controller, the second AG clone on a secondary replica node of the AG. The second AG clone has a size of substantially zero.
