HP 3PAR Application Software Suite for VMware - Manual (Page 8)

TpdVmWebService
TpdVmWebService is a RESTful Web service, which is deployed as a Windows Service. The major
functions of Recovery Manager for VMware vSphere are implemented with this module. These
functions are:
•
Provides a custom Web server to deliver plug-in application Web pages. The vCenter Servers
are configured with the address of this Web server during plug-in registration.
•
Maps Virtual Machines and Datastores to underlying HP 3PAR virtual volumes.
•
Creates, browses, deletes, and mounts Virtual Copy based Virtual Copies of Virtual Machines
and Datastores.
RMWebAccess Library
NOTE: RMWebAccess Library is deployed as a Windows component dll file and is installed
as part of Recovery Manager for VMware vSphere.
Similar to the HP 3PAR Command Line Interface (CLI) and HP 3PAR Management Console (IMC),
the RMWebAccess Library is used for interacting with the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage System
array. The RMWebAccess Library does not use HP 3PAR OS CLI but instead interacts with the
InServ Tpd TCL Service directly using secure network connections.
RMVMware Admin Tool
The RMVMware Admin Tool provides a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for administering Recovery
Manager for VMware vSphere registration with the vCenter server. This tool also includes Host
Explorer for VMware configuration, HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage System credential management,
HP 3PAR VASA Provider configuration and Remote Copy paring configuration.
RMVMwareCLI
The RMVMware CLI module is the command line interface for Recovery Manager for VMware
vSphere.
NOTE: The recommended method for creating Virtual Copies is through the Graphical User
Interface (see “Working with Virtual Copies” (page 68) for complete details).
Four commands are provided through the CLI:
•
RMVMware Create
•
RMVMware InServRegister
•
RMVMware VCenterRegister
•
RMVMware Createrc
RMVMware Create Command
The RMVMware create command creates a Virtual Copy on a Datastore or a Virtual Machine.
The syntax for the RMVMware create command is as follows:
RMVMware Create
<[-ds "Datastore" [-consistency <yes/no> [-vmlist "VirtualMachine1, VirtualMachine2,
..."]]]|[-vm "VirtualMachine" [-consistency <yes/no>]
]>
[-setname "VirtualCopySetName"]
<[-vcserver "vCenterServerName" [-vcuid
