You can use command arguments to set the execution parameters of the domain repoint command.
The cmsso-util domain-repoint CLI repoints vCenter Server from one domain to another.
You can add a space-separated list of arguments to the CLI repoint command
Use the following command to repoint a
vCenter Server to an external
Platform Services Controller:
cmsso-util domain repoint --mode mode --src-psc-admin source_PSC_admin_userid --dest-psc-fqdn target_PSC_FQDN --dest-psc-admin target_PSC_admin_userid --dest-domain-name domain_name_to_repoint --dest-vc-fqdn target_vCenter_server
Use the following command to repoint a
vCenter Server with embedded
Platform Services Controller to another embedded node:
cmsso-util domain-repoint -m execute --src-emb-admin Administrator --replication-partner-fqdn FQDN _of_destination_node --replication-partner-admin destination_node_PSC_Admin_user_name --dest-domain-name destination_PSC_domain
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| -m, --mode | mode can be pre-check or execute. The pre-check argument runs the command in pre-check mode. The execute argument runs the command in execute mode. |
| -spa, --src-psc-admin | SSO administrator user name for the source Platform Services Controller. Do not append the @domain. |
| -dpf, --dest-psc-fqdn | The FQDN of the Platform Services Controller to repoint. |
| -dpa, --dest-psc-admin | SSO administrator user name for the destination Platform Services Controller. Do not append @domain. |
| -ddn, --dest-domain-name | SSO domain name of the destination Platform Services Controller. |
| -dpr, --dest-psc-rhttps | (Optional) HTTPS port for the destination Platform Services Controller. If not set, the default 443 is used. |
| -dvf, --dest-vc-fqdn | The FQDN of the vCenter Server pointing to a destination Platform Services Controller. The vCenter Server is used to check for component data conflicts in the pre-check mode. If not provided, conflict checks are skipped and the default resolution (COPY) is applied for any conflicts found during the import process.
Note: This argument is optional only if the destination domain does not have a
vCenter Server. If a
vCenter Server exists in the destination domain, this argument is mandatory.
|
| -sea, --src-emb-admin | Administrator for the vCenter Server with embedded Platform Services Controller. Do not append @domain to the administrator id. |
| -rpf, --replication-partner-fqdn | (Optional) The FQDN of the replication partner node to which the vCenter Server is replicated. This can be an embedded vCenter Server node or a Platform Services Controller node. |
| -rpr, --replication-partner-rhttps | (Optional) The HTTPS port for the replication node. If not set, the default is 443. |
| -rpa, --replication-partner-admin | (Optional) SSO administrator user name of the replication partner vCenter Server with embedded Platform Services Controller. |
| -dvr, --dest-vc-rhttps | (Optional) The HTTPS port for the vCenter Server pointing to the destination Platform Services Controller. If not set, the default 443 is used. |
| --ignore-snapshot | (Optional) Ignore snapshot warnings. |
| --no-check-certs | (Optional) Ignore certification validations. |
| --debug | (Optional) Retrieves command execution detail. |
| -h, --help | (Optional) Displays the help message for the cmsso-util domain repoint command. |
