parsing error uemcli create snapshot

Question

I have been successful in creating snapshots using the CLI but when I try to add the -replicate option I get an error message: Operation failed. Error code: 0x1000017 Command line parsing failed near '-replicate' token. The command string that fails follows: uemcli /prot/snap create -name OracleFRA_2018-09-12_01:57:45 -source res_4 -keepFor 30d -access ckpt -replicate yes -keepSameAsSource -allowRemoteAutoDelete yes If I remove everything having to do with replication - the command works uemcli /prot/snap create -name OracleFRA_2018-09-12_01:57:45 -source res_4 -keepFor 30d -access ckpt Any ideas On what I am doing wrong ??

Well the documentation is wrong - you cannot use the -replicate parm on the create snap command.

I implemented a script to perform the Snap it then captures the snap ID and then it executes a snap replicate command. - show below.

uemcli /prot/snap -id $IDNo replicate

I was really hoping an EMC employee would respond to this ...
