Stops a database copy.
This command uses the classic deployment model. You should use the newer Resource Manager based REST API commands located here. For more information, see Azure Resource Manager vs. classic deployment: Understand deployment models and the state of your resources.
The Stop Database Copy request must be specified as follows:
Replace {subscription-id} with your subscription ID.
Replace {serverName} with your server name.
Replace {databaseName} with your database name.
Replace {linkID} with your link ID (the link ID is the Name element from the Get Database Copy (classic), List Database Copies (classic), Start Database Copy (classic), and Update Database Copy (classic) responses).
