The dpmvc imgjobcheck command obtains the cloning job status for a specific CA Virtual Assurance job ID or a specific VC task ID. The job ID is provided for certain dpmvc commands. Use this command to verify the status on VC.

This command has the following format:

dpmvc imgjobcheck 
[-sc sc_url] 
-status {job ID|vc task ID} 
[-vc_server vcserver] 
[-vc_user vcuser] 
[-vc_password vcpassword] 
[-auth_file authorizationfilename] 
[-auth_comp componentID] 
[-pre] 
[-post] 
[-ws_user wsuser] 
[-ws_password wspassword] 
[-prompt {yes|no}] 
[-encrypted_password {yes|no}]
[-locale iso639value]
