Dissolve Syntax
The following is the virtadissolve command usage:
virtadissolve <appliance> [/M:? | /K | /F | /Q | /Y]
| The full path of the container. |
| Show the default SID mappings. Report disk free space and space requirement per cstore drive with the corresponding drive on the destination machine. Dissolve will not proceed if the disk space requirement is not met. |
| Do not use Config-on-the-Fly (COTF). |
| Overwrite existing files without checking the file timestamp. |
| Suppress progress information. |
| Automatically accept and perform any dissolve conflicts. |
The user profile registry keys are the user SIDs under the HKEY_USERS registry hive. When an appliance is moved from one computer to another, the user profiles in the appliance may not exist in the current computer. Use the /M option to specify how the appliance user SIDs are mapped to the user SIDs in the local registry.
Note:
If you use the /F option, an existing file will be overwritten even if this file is newer. If the file is in use, the file will be flagged as not dissolved in the virtadissolve report.
You can use a Config-on-the-Fly file with Dissolve. You may need to update the settings in the configuration file with information from the current system. To enable COTF, use the pedit command-line utility.
