This command runs Config-on-the-Fly on demand for a container. Administrator privileges are required.

When you execute virtacotf, a COTF log file called VirtaMove_cotf.log is created in the <container>\ctrack\log folder. The log file contains a record of what was done by COTF. The COTF log file is enabled by default. You can change settings as follows:

VirtaMove Settings\controller\cotfLog DWORD 0, 1, 2

0 - off

1 - on

2 - verbose

Syntax

virtacotf [/S] [/E] VAA [COTF-file [arguments]]

Options

Option	Description
VAA	The full path of the container.
COTF-file	Full path of the Config-on the-fly file. If you do not specify the complete path for the COTF file, VirtaMove automatically looks for it in the container\`scripts` directory. For example, you can specify: `"StandardCOTF.xml" CPROP_SRC_NODENAME`. If specified, the `CPROP_CONFIG_FILE` property is ignored. VirtaMove supports paths that are relative to the container folder. That is, VirtaMove supports: `".\scripts\StandardCOTF.xml"` or the absolute full path: "C:\appliance\containerName\scripts\StandardCOTF.xml" You can also specify only the file name of the COTF file if the file is in the `scripts` folder. For example: `"StandardCOTF.xml"`
arguments	Arguments for the Config-on the-fly file. You can specify environment variables (e.g., `%COMPUTERNAME%`) and container properties (e.g., `CPROP_SRC_NODENAME)`.
/S	Silent mode.
/E	Encryption Detection Mode. The utility will detect any encrypted data in files and registry keys and output the location of the data to `<container>\ctrack\log\CryptDetectLog.txt`. This option is executed using default values. To use custom options, see virtacryptdetect.
