Machine-BulkRegisterImport Arguments
Table 7‑7.
Argument Description
-b | - -batch (Optional) Batch size.
-d | - -delay (Optional) Specify processing delay time in this format:
hh:mm:ss, for example, 02:20:10.
-f | - -filename Specify the CSV data file name containing the list of machine
names. For example, filename.csv.
-h | --humanreadable (Optional) Input file contains the virtual machine names and not
the GUIDs.
-i | - -ignore (Optional) Ignore registered or managed virtual machines.
-n | - -name Specify the name of the work queue to perform the import to the
target vRealize Automation.
- -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.
-s | - -skipUser (Optional) Sets a machine's owner to the value listed in the
Owner column of the CSV data file without verifying that the
user exists. Selecting this option can decrease the time required
for import.
-t | - -time Specify the workflow start time in the format MM/DD/YYYY
hh:mm GMT, for example, 04/18/2014 10:01 GMT. The specified
start time is assumed to be the server's local time and not the
local time of the user's workstation.
-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.
whatif (Optional) Set to validate the CSV file but do not import any
virtual machines.
