The nzsql session history

On UNIX clients, the Netezza Performance Server system stores the history of your nzsql session in the file $HOME/.nzsql_history. In interactive sessions, you can also use the up-arrow key to display the commands that you ran.

On Windows clients, you can use the up-arrow key to display the commands that ran previously.

By default, an nzsql batch session continues even if the system encounters errors. You can control this behavior with the ON_ERROR_STOP variable, for example:
nzsql -v ON_ERROR_STOP=

You do not have to supply a value; defining it is sufficient.

You can also toggle batch processing with a SQL script. For example:
\set ON_ERROR_STOP
\unset ON_ERROR_STOP

You can use the $HOME/.nzsqlrc file to store values, such as the ON_ERROR_STOP, and have it apply to all future nzsql sessions and all scripts.
