3 Power on Node C to begin the repointing process.
4 Run the execute command. In execute mode, the data generated during the pre-check mode
is read and imported to the target node. Then, the vCenter Server is repointed to the target
domain. For example, repointing with no replication partner (repointing to a new domain), run
the execute command with the following:
cmsso-util domain-repoint -m execute --src-emb-admin Administrator --dest-domain-name
destination_PSC_domain
See Syntax of the Domain Repoint Command for argument definitions for the cmsso-util
domain-repoint command.
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 from one domain to another.
You can add a space-separated list of arguments to the CLI repoint command
Use the following command to repoint a vCenter Server to another vCenter Server node:
cmsso-util domain-repoint -m execute --src-emb-admin Administrator --replication-partner-fqdn
FQDN _of_destination_node --replication-partner-admin destination_node_PSC_Admin_user_name --
dest-domain-name destination_PSC_domain
