Detailed Description

This cmdlet waits for the mirroring process to complete before processing any additional cmdlets.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Required	Pipeline Input
Service Host	Server	Specify the server object returned from the New-DtServer cmdlet. For this cmdlet, the -ServiceHost should be your target server.	true	false
JobId	Guid	Specify the job GUID returned from the New-DtJob cmdlet or the Id within the job information returned from the Get-DtJob cmdlet.	true	false
Polling Interval	Int32	Specify the amount of time, in hh:mm:ss, to wait before checking to see if the mirror has completed.	false	false
Connection Id	ConnectionId	Specify the connection ID returned from the Get-DtConnectionIds cmdlet.	false	false
JobInfo	JobInfo	Specify the job information returned from the Get-DtJob cmdlet. The job information can be piped from the Get-DtJob cmdlet and used in this cmdlet.	true	true

Outputs

MirrorState

Examples

$DtServerObjectBeta = New-DtServer -Name beta -UserName domain\administrator -Password password

$DtJobForAlpha = Get-DtJob -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta | Where-Object { $_.Statistics.CoreConnectionDetails.SourceMachineName -eq $DtServerObjectAlpha}

$DtMirrorChecksum = New-Object DoubleTake.Core.Contract.Connection.MirrorParameters

$DtMirrorChecksum.ComparisonCriteria = "Checksum"

$DtMirrorChecksum.Options = "Synchronize,CalculateDifferences"

Start-DtMirror -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta -JobId $DtJobForAlpha.Id -MirrorParameters $DtMirrorChecksum

Wait-DtMirrorComplete -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta -JobId $DtJobForAlpha.Id -PollingInterval "00:05:00"

Disconnect-DtServer -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta

A server object is created for the server beta using the domain\administrator and password credentials. It assigns the server object to the variable called DtServerObjectBeta. The job(s) are retrieved from DtServerObjectBeta, but only the job information where the source machine name is equivalent to the name stored in the variable DtServerObjectAlpha is retrieved. That information is then stored in the variable DtJobForAlpha. The mirror options are stored in DtMirrorChecksum. The ComparisonCriteria value is changed to checksum and the Options are set to Synchronize and CalculateDifferences. Then the mirror is started for the job using the stored mirroring options. The script will wait for mirroring to complete before continuing. The script will check ever five minutes to see if mirroring is complete. The connections for the server object are then closed.
