instance SID can be specified.

match the output of the

◆ alt_tpdpwfile - The location of the 3PAR InServ Storage Server client password file 
that will be used by Recovery Manager to access the InServ Storage Server from the 
alternate backup host. The password file can be created using InForm CLI 
setpassword command.

Recovery Manager to connect to the InServ Storage Server from the alternate backup 
host. The InServ Storage Server user can be created using the InForm CLI

edit or above privilege.
◆ If the InForm CLI is configured to allow access from the alternate backup host to the 
InServ Storage Server, then alt_tpdpwfile must be specified. If SSH is configured to 
allow access from the alternate backup host to the InServ Storage Server, then 
alt_tpdusername must be specified.
