-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. 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. 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. |
-all |
Resume all agents on the selected Core. |
-protectedserver |
Resume current protected server. |
-incoming |
Host name of the remote core that replicates to the core machine. |
-outgoing |
Host name of the remote target core to which data is replicated. |
Examples:
Resume snapshots for specific protected server:
>cmdutil /resume snapshot -core 10.10.10.10 -user administrator -password 23WE@#$sdd -protectedserver 10.10.10.4
Resume export to a virtual machine for all protected machines on the core:
>cmdutil /resume vmexport –core 10.10.10.10 -user administrator -password 23WE@#$sdd -all
Resume outgoing replication on the core for a specific protected machine:
>cmdutil /resume replication -core 10.10.10.10 -user administrator -password 23WE@#$sdd -protectedserver 10.10.1.76
Resume outgoing replication for all protected machines on the target core:
>cmdutil /resume replication -core 10.10.10.10 -user administrator -password 23WE@#$sdd -outgoing 10.10.1.63
Resume incoming replication for all machines on the target core:
>cmdutil /resume replication -core 10.10.10.10 -user administrator -password 23WE@#$sdd -incoming 10.10.1.82

-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. |
-list |
The list of outstanding seed drives with extended information. |
-startcopy |
Start copying data to the seed drive. |
-startconsume |
Start consuming the seed drive. |
-abandon |
Abandon the outstanding seed drive request. |
-path |
The local or network path of the seed drive. |
-seeddriveusername |
Optional. The user name for the network location of the seed drive. |
-seeddrivepassword |
Optional. The password for the network location of the seed drive. |
-targetcore |
Optional. Use only with the -copy option. It is the name or IP address of the remote Core. All protected machines replicating to this Core receive seed drive recovery points. |
-remotecore |
Use only with the -consume option. It is the name of the remote Core from which the seed drive recovery points are created or consumed. |
-protectedserver |
The name or IP address of the protected machine you are using to create or consume the seed drive of recovery points. For example: -protectedserver "10.10.60.48" "10.10.12.101." |
-all |
This option specifies whether to consume or copy all of the available protected machines. |
-usecompatibleformat |
The new archiving format offers improved performance, however it is not compatible with older Cores. Use this option when working with a legacy AppAssure Core.
|
Examples:
List outstanding seed drives:
>cmdutil /seeddrive -list
Copy two protected machines to the seed drive on the network share:
>cmdutil /seeddrive -startcopy -remotecore TargetCoreName -path \\10.10.1.1\Share\Seed\ -seeddriveusername Administrator -seeddrivepassword 12345 -usecompatibleformat
Starting consuming the seed drive:
>cmdutil /seeddrive -startconsume -path \\10.10.1.1\Share\Seed\ -seeddriveusername Adminsitrator -seeddrivepassword 12345 -remotecore RemoteCoreName
Abandon an outstanding seed drive request:
>cmdutil /seeddrive -abandon RemoteCoreHostName
