In Database Server page there is an option “Data model cloned from”. What is that? I’ve been looking for info in the Wiki, but there is NO information about this (here is very little information, it’s very annoying!, and here there’s a broken link )
Thanks
We are aware of the links and missing info: will be shortly updated with the 6.0 release.
The property allows you to specify one database server as a clone of another. when you do and you import a solution that was designed against database server ‘x’, Servoy will update the datamodel of database server ‘x’ and all other databases that are marked as a clone of database server ‘x’.
under the databaseManager in the scripting API there’s also a function to ask for all the clones of a certain database.
These features are usually used in a SaaS environment, where all (or some) customers have all their data in a dedicated database, to which the database connection is switch using the databaseManager.switchServer() command when they launch the solution.

Ok, thanks!
