System Restore Command-Line Options
Use the System Restore command-line to automatically execute instructions or commands. A system administrator can use the System Restore command-line options to import the CSM database for the first time or reload the CSM database from an archive file (.czar file).
To use the System Restore command-line options, execute CSM Administrator with arguments.
Open the command prompt in the Cherwell Service Management directory or give the file path for the SystemRestore.exe utility.
Option | Description |
---|---|
/? | This is the help option and it provides a display of the supported system restore command-line options. |
/s or /i | This option specifies to run from the installer. |
/w | This option specifies to run for web applications. |
/a | This option specifies to run automatically. |
/pc | This specifies a privileged connection. |
/z | This is the .czar file location. |
/c | This is the connection to use. To use a common connection (a connection that is available to all Users of the machine), prefix the connection with [Common]. To use a connection that is associated with the current User, prefix the connection with [User]. When using the interactive dialog, [Common] connections are on the All Users tab, while [User] connections are on the tab named for the current User. |
/u | This is the User name to use. This only works when CSM authentication is enabled (instead of Windows or LDAP). |
/p | This is the password to use. This only works when
CSM
authentication is enabled (instead of Windows or LDAP).
Putting a password into a shortcut is a
potential security issue, since other Users are able to edit the properties of
the shortcut and read the password.
|
/pe | This is the encrypted password to use. |
/ps | This is the platform definition file location. |
/unicode | This option enables Unicode support. |
Example of a System Restore command-line flag:
/c "[Common]Cherwell Browser" /u henri /p mypassword /z
"C:\Cherwell/CherwellDemo.czar" /a
