virtauser
This command lists, exports, and imports information and settings associated with a Windows user account. For remote operation, use this command only if all requirements for Tether have been met.
If an appliance path is not specified, user account information will be exported to an "account bundle" directory on the desktop of the user currently logged into the machine. The name of the directory will be the SID of the exported user account. If a directory by this name already exists, the contents will be replaced with the results of the newest operation.
If you use virtauser to import an account but do not specify a password, the account will be imported with the default VirtaMove password 1password!. Additionally, if you add a user account to a container and the container does not specify the user account as the logon credentials of a virtualized service, the account will be imported automatically when you dock the appliance with the default VirtaMove password 1password!. VirtaMove recommends that you change the passwords of these accounts at the earliest opportunity. For information about changing the default password to a different password if required, see Default Password.
The directory contains the following files:
win32_useraccount.xml- a definition of the user and the user's LSA privilegeswin32_group.xml- a definition of any groups the user belongs to and associated LSA privilegesreparsepoints.xml- a definition of reparse points found in the user’s profile directory
The export operation will not proceed if one of the XML files is missing.
Note:
The password of the user account will not be exported. You must manually set or reset the password during the import procedure.
