StartReplication method of the Msvm_CollectionReplicationService class
Starts the replication service for a collection of virtual machines.
Syntax
uint32 StartReplication(
[in] CIM_CollectionOfMSEs REF Collection,
[in] uint16 InitialReplicationType,
[in] string InitialReplicationExportLocation,
[in] datetime StartTime,
[out] CIM_ConcreteJob REF Job
);
Parameters
-
Collection [in]
-
A reference to the CIM_CollectionOfMSEs instance that represents the collection of virtual machines.
-
InitialReplicationType [in]
-
The type of transfer to use for the initial replication.
-
Network Transfer (1)
-
Export (2)
-
Seeded Network Transfer (3)
InitialReplicationExportLocation [in]
If the InitialReplicationType property is set to "2" (export), this contains the fully-qualified path of the directory to which the initial replication is exported. This method places each virtual machine replication in a separate subdirectory under.
StartTime [in]
The scheduled start time for the initial replication. This parameter is ignored when the InitialReplicationType property is set to "2" (export). When StartTime is not specified, initial replication starts immediately.
Job [out]
An optional job to use for this operation if it is performed asynchronously.
