This cmdlet creates a snapshot of the source replica data on the target. The snapshot of the source replica data is taken immediately on the target when the snapshot is requested. For this cmdlet, the -ServiceHost should be your target server.

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. Then a snapshot of the replica data on the target is taken. 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}

Checkpoint-DtConnection -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta -JobId $DtJobForAlpha

Disconnect-DtServer -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta
