    what would be the parameters if you want to provision from a specific point in time instead of the Latest Snapshot? Note: This conversation was created from a reply on: Tip of the Day: Using the CLI to Provision a SQL Server VDB.

    HI Meagan,

    The procedure would generally be the same. However, step 3 would be slightly different in order to specify a time rather than a snapshot.

    3. Set the time flow point source timeflow and location
        delphix database provision defaults *> set type=TimeflowPointEngineTime
        delphix database provision defaults *> set container=dexample 
        delphix database provision defaults *> set timestamp=2016-01-01T01:01:01.000Z

    The timestamp should be in ISO 8601 extended format: "[yyyy]-[MM]-[dd]T[HH]:[mm]:[ss].[SSS]Z".

    I hope that helps. If you have any questions, please feel free to let us know.

    Thanks!
