--add-ssl

Version	7.2.1

Version availability

Available in 7.2.1/8.0.1 and later.

This property can only be used with tools/tpm update and can only be executed from within the software staging tree.

--config-file-help

Display help information for content of the config file.

--force

Warning

This option should only be supplied if advised to do so by Continuent Support. By using --force and ignoring errors, you could cause unexpected behaviors and at worse, data corruption.

--ini

Specify the location of the directory where INI files will be located, or specify a specific filename

--net-ssh-option

Enables you to set a specific Net::SSH option. For example:

shell> tpm update ... --net-ssh-option=compression=zlib

--no-connectors

Product	CT

This property can only be used with tpm update

--no-deployment

Skip deployment steps that create the install directory. Has the same affect as runningtools/tpm validate[-update].

--no-validation

Skip validation checks that run on each host.

--preserve-schema

Version	7.1.0

During uninstall, issue this option to leave the tracking schema in place in the database. Works withtpm uninstall only.

--remove-property

Remove a previous explicit property setting. For example:

shell> tpm configure --remove-property=replicator.filter.pkey.addPkeyToInserts

--replace-release

This property can only be used with tools/tpm update and can only be executed from within the software staging tree.

This option is highly recommended when upgrading between versions as it will ensure all metadata is correctly rebuilt for the version being installed.

It is not necessary when applying config changes, however it can be useful if properties are not being applied correctly, or if underlying metadata has become corrupt.

--template-file-help

Display the keys that may be used in configuration template files.
