Examples

------------------EXAMPLE------------------

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 connections for the server object are then closed.

$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

Disconnect-DtServer -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta
