File format for specifying deployment targets

 
* 
NOTE: When creating an input file, ensure the following:
•
Use “.txt” or “.csv” filename extension for the input file.
•
In the first row, specify the field names. Use a semicolon (“;”) to separate the fields.
•
In the following rows, specify the values for the fields. Specify the field values for 1 machine per line. Use a semicolon (“;”) to separate the field values.

You can specify the following fields in the input file.

 
Table 15. Valid fields for input file
Field

The NetVault machine names can include uppercase letters (A–Z), lowercase letters (a–z), numbers (0–9), hyphens (“-”), underscores (“_”), and periods (“.”). For more information about NetVault names, see the Quest NetVault Installation Guide.
