RMVMwareCLI

The RMVMware CLI module is the command line interface for Recovery Manager for VMware
vSphere.

NOTE:

The recommended method for creating Recovery Sets is through the Graphical User

Interface.

Four commands are provided through the CLI:

RMVMware Create

RMVMware InServRegister

RMVMware vCenterRegister

RMVMware Createrc

RMVMware Create command

The RMVMware create command creates a Recovery Set 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

"vCenterServerUserID"] [-vcpwd "vCenterServerPassword"] | [-vcfile

"VMwareCredentialStoreFileLocation"] ]>

<[-inserv "InServName"] [-inservuid "InServUserID"]>

[-inservpwd "InServPassword"]

[-expiry "VirtualCopyExpiryInHour"]

[-retention "VirtualCopyRetentionInHour"]

The options and arguments used for this command are described as follows:

-ds <Datastore>|-vm <VirtualMachine>

Creates a Recovery Set on the specified <Datastore> or <VirtualMachine>. By default,
a VM consistent Recovery Set is created. The VM name must be unique within vCenter Server.
The vCenter Server can manage multiple ESXi hosts. The VM name should be unique across
ESXi hosts.

The UUID of the Datastore or Virtual Machine may also be used to create a Recovery Set with
uuid-<myUUIDofDatastore>

or uuid-<myUUIDofVirtualMachine> in place of the

Datastore or Virtual Machine name.

-consistency <yes/no>

(Optional) Specifies whether or not (yes/no) the Recovery Set is to maintain Virtual Machine
application consistency with supported data formats. If this option is not set, the default policy
is applied.
