This cmdlet starts the job validation process, confirming the job options returned from the Get-DtRecommendedJobOptions cmdlet are compatible with the source and target servers you are using. View the details of the validation by using Get-DtVerificationStatus. Do not confuse this process with the verification process that confirms if the data between the source and target are synchronized. 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. The job options used by the job are confirmed, and the validation result is stored in DtValidation. 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}

$DtValidation = Confirm-DtJobOptions -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta -JobId $DtJobForAlpha.Id -JobOptions $DtJob.Options

Disconnect-DtServer -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta
