The CLI references “skysync.” This is expected. |
Authentication

parameter | description | required | default |
|---|---|---|---|
server | The DryvIQ server URI | optional | |
username, user | The username | optional | admin |
password | The password | required | |
site | The remote site context | required when connecting to a remote site |
