    In situations where you want to rebuild a source database, you will need to detach the original dSource and create a new one from the rebuilt data source. However, you can still provision VDBs from the detached dSource.
    1.Detach the dSource
    2. Re-name the detached dSource by clicking the Edit icon next to its name. This is necessary only if you intend give the new dSource the same name as the original one. If you attempt to give the new dSource the same name as the detached one, you will see an error message.
    3.Create the new dSource from the rebuilt database.

    You will now be able to provision VDBs from both the detached dSource and the newly created one, but the detached dSource will only represent the state of the source database prior to being detached.
