The Commvault provider resources are managed using a single primary command called Terraform. This primary command is used along with sub-commands.
The following table lists the sub-commands that are commonly used in the Commvault Terraform module.
Command | Description | Syntax |
|---|
init
| The terraform init command is used to initialize a working directory that contains the Terraform configuration file (.tf). This is the first command that is run after writing a new Commvault provider configuration. You can run this command more than once. | terraform init [options] [DIR]

plan

apply
| The terraform apply command is used to apply the changes (such as create and delete) to the resources in the configuration file. | terraform apply [options] [dir-or-plan]
