VDP 6.0 Automation

[lothargrt]

Hello,

Is there any way to automate VDP 6.0 either usng PowerCLI, API or something else?

We would like to manage jobs (add/remove vm, change retention etc) remotely and not through the vCenter Web Client.

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

You can do something through ssh access to the appliance.

Dear Alex,

It seems that the full Avamar CLI is available through SSH.

Thank you!
