..but, if you have a large amount, dating back a long time, together with a large audit log table, cloning will take too long, or may even fail.
Check Audit logs
The easiest way to check the size of your audit log table is to go to C:\Program Files\Deepnet DualShield\mysql\data\dualshield and search for the log.idb file
In the screenshot posted above 3Gb is acceptable and should not hamper the cloning, but if you have 10, 20, or 30 Gbs + then you will need to cut this downor more it is advisable to cut this down.
If you are not concerned with keeping the audit logs, then the fastest approach is to stop DualShield service, log into your Mysql console via command prompt or MySQL Workbench and drop the log table..
| Code Block | ||
|---|---|---|

drop table log; |
Please note that for DualShield v5 you also need check the size of the log_field.idb and drop this table first.
If you are not confident with MySQL queries you can use the Truncate audit trail task in the admin console to do the same thing.
