Abstract
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system includes a processor to copy an object of a database system. The system determines one or more portions of the object that are active and reside within a buffer pool of the database system, and copies the determined portions of the object from the buffer pool. Remaining portions of the object that are non-active are copied from database storage. A copy of the object is created from the copied object portions. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for copying an object of a database system in substantially the same manner described above.
