Cloning an instance - attachments

[Stephen Skaggs]

When I attempted to clone one of my instances to another instance. The source instance had attachments on the records but on the target instance, the attachments were not there after cloning completed. I verified the data, records were cloned successfully. Please let me know if I missed something here when cloning.

Did you select the 'Exclude large attachment data' option, when cloning?  That will have an affect.

Perfect, thank you for the help! 

I am new to this and was my first time cloning.

Also, check to make sure attachments are not explicitly excluded in the excluded tables list.  Look for sys_attachment and sys_attachment_doc
