48 Replication CLI Commands
Resuming the
Replication Service on
the Source
syscli --resume replication [--target <host_name_or_ip>]
The CLI allows the admin user to resume all or a specified active replication
target(s).
CLI command options:
• --resume: Resumes all or a specified active replication targets.
• --target: If specified, resumes the specified replication target; otherwise, the
resume applies to all targets. If the system or the share/partition has two
targets configured, you must use the --target option and you must specify a
target IP or hostname. If the system or the share/partition has no target
configured, invoking the commands will result in error.
Enabling All Replication
for Both VTL and NAS
on the Source
syscli --enablerep all
This CLI command allows the admin user to enable the state of all replication for
all deduplicated VTLs and shares
Note: This command enables replication for all targets configured for the VTL
or NAS share. You cannot enable replication for a single target. Instead,
run the following command to allow or disallow replication to a
particular target: syscli --add/del <nastarget|vtltarget> --name
<nas_or_vtl_name> --target <host_name_or_ip>
Disabling All
Replication for Both
VTL and NAS on the
Source
syscli --disablerep all
This CLI command allows the admin user to disable the state of all shares and
partitions configured on this system.
Clearing Replication
Statistics
syscli --clear stats [--sent] [ --received]
This CLI command allows the admin user to clear replication statistics. If the
--sent option is specified, the sent replication statistics will be cleared. If the
--received option is specified, the received replication statistics will be cleared.
Listing Deduplicated
VTL on the Source
syscli --list dedupvtl
This CLI command allows the CLI admin to display a list of all the virtual tape
libraries (VTLs) that have data deduplication enabled. Replication information is
also listed if it applies. The list includes the VTL name, replication options (syncid
if any are seen), last replication status (start, completion and status) and or last
synchronization status (start, completion and status).
An example output of this is command:
Totalcount=1
[dedupvtl=1]
