Description

server list

Full path to a file providing a list of sources with credentials. Each line presents a single source and should be comma-separated. If the source machine is running VirtaMove Source Agent, only the source address is required.

File format:
<SourceAddress>,<Username>,<Password>

/M

Enables migration of multiple sources.

/L

Outputs a list of installed products for each individual source to a productlist.csv file per source, and creates a pivot_table_info.csv file and a Summary_Report.txt file. The productlist.csv file is inside the PACE folder.

To select a product, place an 'x' before the product name in productlist.csv

/C

Outputs "Mapp.xml" of components associated with selected products to the individual source folder. A file for input of service credentials will also be generated when necessary. Open the credentials file and enter in the necessary credentials. This is not required if the source machine is running VirtaMove Source Agent.

/T

Tethers selected products into containers corresponding to each individual source. This option automatically sets the COTF property in the container's scripts/StandardCOTF.xml file.

Note that to maximize success, applications on the source should be stopped and/or not in use during the tethering process.

If you have not yet activated your VirtaMove license, you will be prompted to do so when you try to execute /T. See https://virtamove.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/VDOC/pages/311033861/Activating+Your+VirtaMove+License?search_id=1977d2de-d6d8-474c-a556-5e48b0eeaf06 for information.

/Z

When used in conjunction with the /T option, automatically compresses the container once the pre-population operation is completed.

/R

Regenerates the ProductList.csv file in the PACE folder according to the current ProductListIncludes.txt file without consulting the source machine.

Requires a ProductListIncludes.txt to be present in the PACE folder. An existing ProductList.csv or Mapp.xml file will be backed up with a timestamp. Reads from the renamed ProductList.csv file and creates a new ProductList.csv file, reselecting from the products based on the contents of the includes file.

Note: Existing containers will not be backed up or modified by this command. If you do not want to modify an existing container with additional product information during a subsequent /M /T command, move the container before executing /M /T. Do not rename the container or container folder.

/L

Lists products installed on the local or remote system. If only the source address is provided, the source machine must be running VirtaMove Source Agent.
