Problems with CLIX repository and copy commands

[Former Member]

Hi.

I am using MDM 7.1.03.65 and I am trying to use CLIX for archiving a repository and to synchronize the slave.

I use the following command

CLIX cpyArchive EXMXd01 JKH:EXMXd01:s:sa:password

My server is EXMXD01, it is a SQL server.

I get following error message: "The Specified repository was not found on the server"

I then tried following commands:

CLIX MdsStatus EXMXd01 Admin:password

And all my repositories are listed, also the one not found above.

CLIX dbList EXMXD01 EXMXD01:s:sa:password

Also give me all the repositories back.

The problem seems to be with the RepositorySpec.

Anyone having the same porblem and a solution?

Best regards John-Kjell

Hi John Kjell,

don't know if problem is solved or not necessary anymore, but I was facing a similar problem with this and got one solution for me.

The given message "The Specified repository was not found on the server" is not only an error of the repository name but an error of the whole RepositorySpec. For example I used a wrong DMBS-Type for calling the cpyArchive CLIX command.

So ensure that your RepositorySpec is correct. For this you can help yourself by using this command

• CLIX mdsStatus MDMServer Admin:password

and have a look on your referenced repository for archiving issue.

Remember:

RepositorySpec = RepositoryName : DBMSHostName : DBMSType : DBMSUser : DBMSPassword

You can read your DBMSHostName and DBMSType in the ouput of mdsStatus command for your repository:

• DBMSHostName equals DBMSInstance
• DBMSType equals DBT

If this does not work either, try for User/Password combination different way, e.g. the MdmServerUser or AdminUser of the given Repository.

Hope this helps and best regards
