ModifyReplicationSettings method of the Msvm_ReplicationService class

Modifies the replication settings for a virtual machine. When a client calls this method for a replica virtual machine, it modifies the replication settings of the replication relationship with the extended replica.

Syntax

uint32 ModifyReplicationSettings(
  [in]  CIM_ComputerSystem REF ComputerSystem,
  [in]  string                 ReplicationSettingData,
  [out] CIM_ConcreteJob    REF Job
);

Parameters

ComputerSystem [in]

A reference to a CIM_ComputerSystem instance that represents the virtual machine for which the replication settings should be modified.

ReplicationSettingData [in]

A string representation of the Msvm_ReplicationSettingData class that defines the new replication settings.

Job [out]

If the operation is performed asynchronously, this method will return 4096, and this parameter will contain a reference to an object derived from CIM_ConcreteJob.

Return value

This method returns one of the following values.

Remarks

ModifyReplicationSettings takes an Msvm_ReplicationSettingData instance (FRSD) as input. The associated FRSD for the virtual machine as host-to-host provider is the default choice. Input FRSD is validated for valid settings for each property for the default provider. This table summarizes the validation differences with respect to the external provider.
