The clearinghouse initiate operation initiates a defined action on the specified clearinghouse. The required clearinghouse_name_list argument is a list of one or more names of clearinghouses you want to initiate actions on. Currently, only a checkpoint action is available. The operation returns an empty string on success.

Privileges Required
You need w (write) permission on the clearinghouse server and A (Admin) permission on the cell root directory. The server principal (/.:/hosts/hostname/cds-server) needs r (read), w (write), and A (Admin) permission on the cell root directory.

Examples
The following command initiates a checkpoint operation on the clearinghouse named /.:/oddball_ch on the local system.

dcecp> clearinghouse initiate /.:/oddball_ch -checkpoint
dcecp>
