ForceVirtualStandby

Exporting data from a protected machine to a virtual machine creates a virtual standby machine. If you have continuous virtual export set up, you can use this command to force Rapid Recovery to export data on demand, regardless of the predetermined schedule.

Usage

The usage for the command is as follows: 

/forcevirtualstandby -core [host name] -user [user name] -password [password login] -protectedserver [name] | -all
Command Options

The following table describes the options available for the ForceVirtualStandby command:

Table 38: ForceVirtualStandby command options
Option Description 
-?
 Display this help message. 
-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. 
-protectedserver
 The name or space-separated names of virtualized machines. 
-all
 This command specifies whether to force all scheduled virtual exports.
Examples:

Force all virtual standby exports: 

>cmdutil /forcevirtualstandby -all

Force virtual standby for two machines: 

>cmdutil /forcevirtualstandby -protectedserver 10.10.35.48 10.10.35.69

GetOracleInstanceMetadata

The getoracleinstancemetadata command lets you retrieve the detailed metadata for a specified Oracle instance.

Usage

The usage for the command is as follows: 

/getoracleinstancemetadata -core [host name] -user [user name] -password [password] -protectedserver [name | IP address] -instancename [Oracle instance SID]
Command Options

The following table describes the options available for the getoracleinstancemetadata command:

Table 39: GetOracleInstanceMetadata command options
Option Description 
-?
 Display this help message. 
-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
 The name or IP address of the protected machine. 
-instancename
 The Oracle SID from which you want to fetch metadata.
Example:

Get detailed metadata for the named Oracle instance. If no metadata credentials are set, then only summary metadata displays: 

>cmdutil /getoracleinstancemetadata -core 10.10.127.42 -user admin -password -676df#df -protectedserver 10.10.34.88 -instancename ORCL

Help

The help command displays a list of the available commands and their definitions. It also provides copyright and version details.

Usage

The usage for the command is as follows: 

/help
Example:

Request Command Line help: 

>cmdutil /help

List

The list command returns information about all recovery points, active jobs, completed jobs, failed jobs, invalid (failed) recovery points, valid (passed) recovery points, mounts, protected servers, volumes, virtualized servers, unprotected volumes, clusters, protection groups, SQL databases, Exchange databases, replicated servers, and repositories for the specified agent or list of servers currently protected by the Core. The most recent records return by default. You can list all records or specify how many records display by using a number parameter. This parameter should contain the letter "l" for the latest recovery points and "f" for the first recovery point. Each recovery point has its own number, which the administrator can use for mounting.

Usage

The usage for the command is as follows: 

/list [rps | passed | failed | mounts | volumes | protectedservers | activejobs | completed jobs | failedjobs | virtualizedservers | unprotectedvolumes | clusters | protectiongroups | sqldatabases | exchangemailstores | replicatedservers | repositories] -protectedserver [name | IP address] -core [host name] -user [user name] -password [password] –number [all | l<number> | f<number> | <number>] -jobtype
