This illustration shows a CDB with a CDB$ROOT
container, a PDB$SEED
container plugged into the root, and several PDBs plugged into the root. One PDB is a new PDB. The illustration shows the PDB$SEED
files associated with the PDB$SEED
container. The illustration shows the seed's files copied to a new location. The copied files are the files of the new PDB. The illustration shows the copied files associated with the new PDB. A CREATE
PLUGGABLE
