• --replace — Gets the configuration .xml files with the system-related details such
as Service Tag.
• -c — Specifies the FQDD or list of FQDDs separated by ',' of the components for
which the configurations should be exported. If this option is not specified, the
configuration related to all the components are exported.
• --includeph — Specifies that the password hash should be included in the
exported configuration
.xml file.
NOTE: For --clone and --replace options, only .xml file template is received.
These options --clone and --replace cannot be used in the same command.
