    Unlike the GUI, the CLI supports the ability to manage multiple replication specifications within a single system. This allows updates to be sent to multiple systems from a single point.


    1. Switch to the replication spec context.
    ssh delphix_admin@yourengine
    yourengine > replication/spec
    yourengine replication spec > ls
    2. Create a new replication spec.
    yourengine replication spec create * > ls
    Properties
            type: ReplicationSpec
            name: (unset)
            bandwidthLimit: (unset)
            compressed: (unset)
            enabled: (unset)
            encrypted: (unset)
            objects: (required)
            schedule: (unset)
            targetCredential:
               type: PasswordCredential
               password: (required)
            targetHost: (required)
            targetPrincipal: (required)
    3. Specify the target host name, user, and credentials.
    yourengine replication spec create * > set targetHost=exampleHost.mycompany.com
    yourengine replication spec create * > set targetPrincipal=delphix_admin
    yourengine replication spec create * > set targetCredential.password=password
    4. Specify the set of objects to replicate.
          A.To replicate all dSources and VDBs on the system, specify  'DOMAINas the list of objects.
         yourengine replication spec create *> set object='DOMAIN
          B. To replicate a subset of VDBs and dSources, specify their names as a comma-separated list.
         yourengine replication spec create *> set objects=dExample1,dExample2
    5. Commit the operation
    yourengine replication spec create *> commit
          'REPLICATION_SPEC_1
