<address of the pool's master XenServer host>

Instruct a slave member XenServer host to reset its master address to the new value and attempt to connect to
it. This command should not be run on master hosts.

pool-emergency-transition-to-master

Instruct a member XenServer host to become the pool master. This command is only accepted by the XenServer
host if it has transitioned to emergency mode, meaning it is a member of a pool whose master has disappeared
from the network and could not be contacted for some number of retries.

Note that this command may cause the password of the host to reset if it has been modified since joining the
pool (see 

).

repository.

pool-recover-slaves

Instruct the pool master to try and reset the master address of all members currently running in emergency
mode. This is typically used after pool-emergency-transition-to-master has been used to set one of the members
as the new master.

pool-restore-database

 file-name=

<filename_to_restore_from_(on_client)>

 [dry-run=

<true | false>

]

Upload a database backup (created with pool-dump-database) to a pool. On receiving the upload, the master
will restart itself with the new database.

There is also a dry run option, which allows you to check that the pool database can be restored without actually
perform the operation. By default, 

dry-run

 is set to false.
