Modifying Subclient Properties Using the Commvault Command Line Interface

Use XML to modify subclient properties. Run the operation from the command line, or automate configuration by combining command line operations in a script.

The XML parameters can be included in the XML file, or specified on the command line when they frequently change. For more information on command line parameters and XML elements, see Command Line - Syntax.
