Configuring a Home Site
You can use the lmvutil command with the --createUserHomeSite or --createGroupHomeSite option
create a home site for a user or group. You can also use these options to associate a home site with a global
entitlement.
Syntax
lmvutil --createUserHomeSite --userName domain\username --siteName name [--entitlementName name]
lmvutil --createGroupHomeSite --groupName domain\groupname --siteName name [--entitlementName
name]
Usage Notes
You must create a site before you can configure it as a home site. See “Creating a Site,” on page 50.
These commands return an error message if the Cloud Pod Architecture feature is not initialized, the
specified user or group does not exist, the specified site does not exist, the specified entitlement does not
exist, or the command cannot create the home site.
Options
You can specify these options when you create a home site for a user or group.

--siteName
Specifies the name of the site to associate with the user or group as the home
