Options
  • machine—Name of the machine where you want to execute the script as a test
  • path—Specify the full path and file name (including the file extension) to the mirroring script. Do not include arguments with the path, only the path and file name. Enclose the path in quotation marks.

  • INTERACT—Display script processing on the screen
  • NOINTERACT—Do not display script processing. Execute the script silently in the background
Examples script test beta "C:\Program Files\DoubleTake\Scripts\MirrorStartScript. bat" "arg1 arg2" interact
Notes
  • The default setting for this command is nointeract.
  • The file name you specify for your script should be the primary executable of the command being run. If you are using a command shell to execute a script, put the command shell execturable as the script file name and pass another script name in as an argument.
  • Multiple arguments need to be enclosed in quotation marks and separated by a space. Also, if an argument contains non-alphanumeric characters, you must enclose it in quotation marks. Arguments cannot contain nested quotation marks. Therefore, if you are passing more than one argument to your script, none of the arguments can require quotation marks. To work around this limitation, you can use 8.3 file naming.
  • Machine names that contain non-alphanumeric characters must be enclosed in quotation marks.
