The Oracle MaxRep Command Line Interface

For release 3.0.4 and higher, Oracle MaxRep for SAN provides a Command Line Interface (CLI). The CLI allows you to manage operations for Oracle MaxRep Replication Engines that are configured in your SAN replication environment.

The Oracle MaxRep Command Line Interface (MRCLI) supports the management of Oracle MaxRep Replication Engines through a specified list of commands. The MRCLI commands are presented in categories known as namespaces. Namespaces separate the commands by function. The MRCLI has built-in namespace utility.

The utility namespace has a corresponding help command, and a help page associated with its namespace help command. The namespace syntax is the namespace name, followed by a colon, followed by the command.

For example: utility:getEngineIpFromId

An administrative account username is required to run all commands, and the MRCLI prompts for a password.

Commands used in the MRCLI are not case-sensitive. Arguments are case-sensitive.

To resolve both forward and reverse lookups on a MaxRep Replication Engine, DNS must be configured on the host that is running the MRCLI.
