Zerto Virtual Replication Cmdlets Reference : Import-Settings

Import-Settings

Imports details of all the VPGs for both the Zerto Virtual Manager where the cmdlet is run and for the VPGs on the paired site.

Syntax

Import-Settings [-ZVMIP] <String> [-ZVMPort] <Int32> [-Username] <String> [-Password] <String> [-FilePath] <String> [[LegacyImport]] [-Wait <int32>] [<Common&RiskParameters>]

Description

The Import-Settings cmdlet imports details of all the VPGs, either protected or recovered to the site of the Zerto Virtual Manager where the cmdlet is run. When the Zerto Virtual Manager is paired with multiple sites the VPGs can be from any of these paired sites, as long as they were either protected or recovered to the site of the Zerto Virtual Manager where the cmdlet is run. The details are imported from an XML file that was previously exported using the Export-Settings cmdlet run from the same Zerto Virtual Manager site as the import is run.
