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 |
This command specifies whether to remove all scheduled virtual exports. |
Examples:
Remove all virtual standby exports:

>cmdutil /removevirtualstandby -protectedserver 10.10.35.48 10.10.35.69
Replicate
Use the Replicate command to set up replication between two Rapid Recovery Cores.
Usage
The usage for the command is as follows:
/replicate -request [email | email customer ID] -targetserver [host name | hostname port | hostname user name password | hostname port user name password] -replicationname [name] -seeddrive [localpath | network path username password] [comment] -protectedserver [name | name repository]

-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 |
-request |
Optional. Specify this option if you want to use a subscription to a third-party provider of off-site backup and disaster recovery services. |
-targetserver |
The name of the server where you want to establish replication. It includes the following parameters:
The port parameter is optional, with a default of 8006. If you used the request option, you should also use the user name and password for the target server. |
-replicationname |
Optional. Use the name of the replication job if you do not use the request option. |
-seeddrive |
Optional. Use this option to specify a seed drive for the initial data transfer. The comment parameter is optional. |
-protectedserver |
The list of protected machines you want to replicate. If you use the request option, list only the names or IP addresses of protected machines. Otherwise, list both protected machines and the corresponding remote repository name. |
Example:
Replicate two protected machines to the remote Core using a seed drive from a network share:
>cmdutil /replicate -targetserver 10.10.1.100 Administrator 123Q -replicationname ReplicationName -seeddrive Network \\10.10.1.100\seeddrive Administrator 123Q -protectedserver 10.10.1.1 Repository1 10.10.1.2 Repository2
Replication
Use the replication command to control existing replication between two Rapid Recovery Cores and manage pending replication requests.
NOTE: This command succeeds the Replicate command, which establishes the connection—called pairing—between the Cores and uses a seed drive for the initial data transfer. For more information about this command, see Replicate.
Usage
The usage for the command is as follows:
/replication [-list [incoming | outgoing | pending] -accept | -deny | -ignore | -delete | -edit] -id [replication ID] -protectedserver [name | name repository] -responsecomment [comment] -deleterecoverypoints -scheduletype [type] -dailystarttime [time] -dailyendtime [time] -weekdaystarttime [time] -weekdayendtime [time] -weekendstarttime [time] -weekendendtime [time]

-accept |
Accepts the replication request. |
-deny |
Denies the replication request. |
-ignore |
Ignores the replication request. |
-delete |
Use this option to delete an existing replication job or a machine from the replication job. Specify only the -id parameter to delete an entire replication relationship, or specify both the -id and -protectedserver parameters to delete only specific machines from replication. |
-edit |
Edits the schedule of existing replication jobs. |
-id |
The identifier for the replication job or pending replication request. It can be a remote Core ID, host name, customer ID, email address, or pending replication request ID. |
-protectedserver |
When responding to a replication request, use this option to apply your response to list of protected servers with a repository name or ID. Use the parameter "all" to apply response to all requested machines. |
-responsecomment |

-scheduletype |
If you use the -edit option, this option specifies the type of replication schedule. Include one of the following four values:
- atalltimes - Automatically replicate at any time.
- daily - Replicate daily. Specify the
