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
Use the lmvutil command with the --resolveUserHomeSite option to determine the effective home site
for a specific user. Because home sites can be assigned to users and groups and to global entitlements, it is
possible to configure more than one home site for a user.
Syntax
lmvutil --resolveUserHomeSite --entitlementName name --userName domain\username
Usage Notes
This 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.
Options
You must specify these options when you list the effective home site for a user.
Table 5‑18. Options for Listing the Effective Home Site for a User
Option Description
--entitlementName
Name of a global entitlement. This option enables you to determine the
effective home site for a user and global entitlement combination, which might
be different from the home site that is configured for the user.
--userName
Name of the user whose home site you want to list. Use the format
domain\username.
Example
lmvutil --authAs adminEast --authDomain domainEast --authPassword "*"
--resolveUserHomeSite --userName domainEast\adminEast
