Creating a database template in Delphix Self-Service
CODE
#!/bin/bash
# A sample script for calls to the CLI. This one creates a Jet Stream Template.
#
# VERY IMPORTANT: In order for this to work, you need to go through the steps here:
# https://docs.delphix.com/display/DOCS43/CLI+Cookbook%3A+Configuring+Key-Based+SSH+Authentication+for+Automation
# After this you will not need to use a username and password to log into the delphix engine. If you do not
# setup the SSH authentication you will have to manually enter the password.
#
