Argument Description
-f | - -filename Specify the name of the CSV data file containing a list of
machine names, for example, filename.csv. File is saved in
the current path by default. You can also specify the complete
path to a preferred directory.
-g | - -group (Optional) Specify business group name, for example,
Engineering.
-i | - -ignore (Optional) Ignore invalid arguments.
-m | - -managed (Optional) Export managed virtual machines. The default is
export unmanaged virtual machines.
-n | - -resourceName (Optional) To filter by resource name, specify the name of the
Compute Resource or Endpoint.
-o | - -owner (Optional) Specify owner of imported virtual machine, for
example, jsmith.
-p | - -properties (Optional) Export properties for managed virtual machines.
-r | - -resourceType (Optional) To filter by resource type, specify 1 for Compute
Resource or 2 for Endpoint .
- -repository (Optional) The root URI of the Model Manager, for example,
http://hostname/repository. Default is specified in the CloudUtil
config file in the repositoryAddress key under the <appSettings>
section.
-sn | - -sourcename (Optional) Specify the name of the cluster or endpoint.
-st | - -sourcetype (Optional) Specify the source type as Cluster or Endpoint.
-t | - -machinetype (Optional) Specify machine type to be exported, for example,
Virtual, Physical, Cloud, AppService, vApp.
-u | - -user Specify the Fabric Administrator who performs the bulk
registration.
-v | - -verbose (Optional) If an error occurs, outputs a stack trace instead of just
the exception message.
Machine-BulkRegisterImport
Imports one or more virtual machines to a target vRealize Automation deployment.
