Example
lmvutil --authAs adminEast --authDomain domainEast --authPassword "*" --listEntitlements
--userName example\adminEast
Listing the Home Sites for a User or Group
You can use the lmvutil command with the --showUserHomeSites or --showGroupHomeSites option to
list all the configured home sites for a specific user or group.
Syntax
lmvutil --showUserHomeSites --userName domain\username [--entitlementName name]
lmvutil --showGroupHomeSites --groupName domain\groupname [--entitlementName name]
Usage Notes
These commands return an error message if the Cloud Pod Architecture feature is not initialized or if the
specified user, group, or global entitlement does not exist.
Options
You can specify these options when you list the home sites for a user or group.
Table 5‑17. Options for Listing the Home Sites for a User or Group
Option Description
--userName
Name of a user. Use the format domain\username.
--groupName
Name of a group. Use the format domain\groupname.
--entitlementName
(Optional) Name of a global entitlement. Use this option if you want to show the
home sites for a user or group and global entitlement combination.
Example
lmvutil --authAs adminEast --authDomain domainEast --authPassword "*" --showUserHomeSites --
userName example\adminEast
lmvutil --authAs adminEast --authDomain domainEast --authPassword "*" --showGroupHomeSites --
groupName example\adminEastGroup
Listing the Effective Home Site for a User
Because you can assign home sites to users and groups and to global entitlements, you can configure more
than one home site for a specific user. You can use the lmvutil command with the
--resolveUserHomeSite option to determine the effective home site for a specific user.
Syntax
lmvutil --resolveUserHomeSite --entitlementName name --userName domain\username
Usage Notes
The lmvutil command returns an error message if the Cloud Pod Architecture feature is not initialized or if
the specified global entitlement or user does not exist.
