Options (SAP Library - Database Manager CLI: SAP DB 7.4)

Options

You can use the following options in the Database Manager CLI (Command Structure):

Logging On to the XUSER Program	-ux
Displaying the Parameters for an XUSER Entry	-up
Displaying XUSER Data	-ul
Opening a Service Session	-uSRV
Opening an SQL Session	-uSQL \| -USQL
Opening a Utility Session	-uUTL \| -UUTL
Installation Directory of the Database Instance	-R <inst_path>
Indicator as DBM Command	-c
Local Operation	-s
Deleting XUSER Data	-ud
Name of the Output File	-o <file_name>
Name of the Database Instance	-d <database_name>
Name of the Log File	-t <file_name>
Name of the Database Server	-n <server_node>
Name of the Input Script	-i <file_name>
Storing XUSER Data	-us
Version of the Database Manager	-V
XUSER Key	-uk

Note

If you use options with optional parameters, mark the beginning of the DBM command with the option –c (Indicator as DBM command: -c).
By doing so, you avoid the Database Manager program interpreting the beginning of the DBM command as a parameter of the previously specified option.

Example

dbmcli -uUTL samplename,secret -d myDB

This calls the Database Manager (DBMCLI) and establishes a utility session for user samplename, password secret, with registered database instance myDB.
