-password |
Optional. Password to the remote Core host machine. If you specify a password, you also have to provide a user name. If none is provided, then the credentials for the logged-on user are used. |
Create a new storage location in a local DVM repository:
>cmdutil /updaterepository -name “Repository 1” -size 200Gb -datapath d:\repository -metadatapath d:\repository -core 10.10.10.10:8006 -username administrator -password 23WE@#$sdd
Create a storage location for a DVM repository at a shared location:
>cmdutil /updaterepository -name “Repository 1” -size 200Gb -uncpath \\share\repository -shareusername login -sharepassword 23WE@#$sdd -core 10.10.10.10:8006 -username administrator -password 23WE@#$sdd
The version
command displays information about the version of the Rapid Recovery software installed on the specified server. If you do not specify a core or protected server, the information returned applies to the Core on which you are currently working.
The usage for the command is as follows:
/[version | ver] -protectedserver [name | IP address]

Display information about the version of Rapid Recovery installed on the current Rapid Recovery Core:
>cmdutil /version
You can use the virtualstandby
command to export data from a Rapid Recovery protected machine to a compatible virtual machine.
The usage for the command is as follows:
/virtualstandby -edit -exporttype [esxi | vm | hyperv | vb] -core [host name] -user [user name] -password [password] -protectedserver [name | IP address] -volumes [volume names] -vmname [virtual machine name] -gen2 -hostname [virtual host name] -hostport [virtual host port number] -hostusername [virtual host user name] -hostpassword [virtual host password] [-ram [total megabytes] | -usesourceram] -diskprovisioning [thin | thick] -diskmapping [automatic | manual | withvm] -targetpath [location] -pathusername [user name] -pathpassword [password] [-uselocal machine] -initialexport
The following table describes the options available for the virtualstandby
command:
Option | Description | ||
---|---|---|---|
-? |
Display this help message. | ||
-exporttype |
This option exports data from a protected machine to one of the following specified virtual servers:
| ||
-core |
Optional. Remote Core host machine IP address (with an optional port number). By default, the connection is made to the Core installed on the local machine. | ||
-user |
Optional. The user name for the remote Core host machine. If you specify a user name, you must also provide a password. If none is provided, then the credentials for the logged-on user are used. | ||
-password |
Optional. The password to the remote Core host machine. If you specify a password, you also have to provide a user name. If none is provided, then the credentials for the logged-on user are used. | ||
-protectedserver |
Use this option to specify the protected machine whose recovery points you want to export. | ||
-volumes |
Optional. Use this option to list the names of the volumes that you want to export. If you do not specify volumes, then all volumes in the recovery point will export. Enclose values in double quotes and separate them with a space.
| ||
-ram |
Use this option to allocate a specific amount of RAM on the virtual server. | ||
-usesourceram |
Optional. Use this option to allocate the same amount of RAM on the virtual server that the source machine contains. | ||
-vmname |
The Windows name of the virtual machine. | ||
-gen2 |
Optional. This option specifies Generation 2 of the VM server. If you do not specify the generation, the command uses Generation 1. The following operating systems support Generation 2:
| ||

Set up a virtual standby export to a VMware Workstation machine file on the local drive:
>cmdutil /virtualstandby -exporttype vm -core 10.10.10.10 -user administrator -password 23WE@#$sdd -protectedserver 10.10.5.22 -vmname Win2008-Smith -targetpath c:\virtualmachines -ram 4096
Set up a virtual standby export to a Hyper-V machine files and store them on a remote machine:
>cmdutil /virtualstandby -exporttype hyperv -core 10.10.10.10 -user adminstrator -password 23WE@#$sdd -protectedserver 10.10.5.22 -vmname Win20008-Smith -vmlocation \\WIN7-Bobby\virtualmachines -hostname 10.10.10.23 -hostport 443 -hostusername root -hostpassword 12QWsdxc@# -ram 4096
When running on the same machine on which Rapid Recovery Core is installed, the Rapid Recovery Command Line Management utility bases its display language on the language set for the Core. In this release, supported languages include English, Chinese (Simplified), French, Korean, German, Japanese, Portuguese (Brazil), and Spanish.
If the Rapid Recovery Command Line Management utility is installed on a separate machine, English is the only language supported.
