This is an old revision of the document!


vSphere Data Protection CLI

When dealing with VDP, a lot of the things you need to do are not possible from the GUI, I will try to list some of the more useful commands that you can use through SSH to the appliance.

  • Get a list of running tasks
mccli activity show

This will give a list of activity with IDs as well as the status of each activity.

  • Get the log of a certain activity
mccli activity get-log --id=XXXXXXXXXX

You get the ID from the “show” command, this will give you a nice log of what is going on.

  • Cancel a running activity
mccli activity cancel --id=XXXXXXXXXX

<note>I will keep adding commands in here as I find them</note>
