There is little information about repctl

I think we are supposed to use another tool, a management tool that runs on windows and that provides a rest API. For me this is very annoying because this tool is a separate tool that does not run on linux. But I definitively needs to be able to automate everything at the command line (even though the gui via the console is nice, you still need the command line to be able to automate).

About repctl, I found this following web page

Hello,

There are only a few functions with repctl that are documented and supported. Please see the Replicare user guide that corresponds to your version for that very limited list. For additional command line needs please see the: "Qlik Enterprise Manager Developer's Guide". There we list many functions that can be invoked through the command line.

Thanks,

Lyka

When I do repctl stoptask task=ABC I get following but from console I see task never stops. Is there anything else I need to do?

command stoptask response:
{
"status": 0
}
[stoptask command] Succeeded

Hello,

FYR:

Paramaters:

1 = Start Full Load only

2 = Start Change Capture only

3 = Start Both

Flags Values:

0 = Resume

1 = Fresh Start (like starting as of now)

repctl connect; execute task_name 3 Flags=0; disconnect

Note: The execute command may take up to several minutes to complete.

Stop a Task:

repctl connect ; stoptask task; disconnect

Remotely:

repctl connect ip=192.168.165.11 port=3552 ; stoptask task; disconnect

Thanks

Lyka
