After vCenter Server is repointed to the target Platform Services Controller, the Customer Experience
Improvement Program (CEIP) participation preference is updated to the target domain preference.
What to do next
If you repointed a vCenter Server Appliance that is configured in a vSphere High Availability cluster, you
can reconfigure the vSphere HA cluster. See vSphere Availability for information about configuring
vSphere HA.
Solutions or plugins registered with vCenter Server must be registered again after a successful repoint.
Identity sources must be manually migrated. SSO configuration is not migrated. Users and policies
require manual intervention.
Syntax of the Domain Repoint Command
You can use command arguments to set the execution parameters of the domain repoint command.
The cmsso-util domain-repoint CLI repoints vCenter Server to External Platform Services Controller
in a different Domain.
You can add a space-separated list of arguments to the CLI repoint command
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
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.
