Command-line Keywords
This topic discusses command-line keywords.
- PR0CMND
- Type PR0CMND to initiate command line processing. Note that the character following PR is the number 0 (zero).
- /RESTARTRETRY
- Command to run the restart/retry request. Specify /RESTARTRETRY or –RESTARTRETRY.
- CONTROL=controlfilename
- Name of the Control File (controlfilename) specified for the Insert Process. The Control File identifies the Insert Request to be restored or retried. If the file is not in the default Data Directory, provide the full directory path, exactly as specified in the original process request.
- SERVER=servername
- Machine on which the process was executed. If omitted, a local machine is assumed.
- PST=pstdirectoryname
- Name of the Optim™ Directory for the Insert Request. If you do not use this keyword, the current (default) Optim Directory is used.
- OUTPUT=filename
- Name of the output file for the process report.
Specify OUTPUT= followed by a file name. To append the report
to an existing file, place a plus sign (+) after the file name.
- If you do not use this keyword, the report displays automatically after each process completes. You must close the report dialog before the next process can begin.
- If you do not specify a full directory path, the file is saved in your default Data Directory (specified in Personal Options).
- For a UNIX or Linux® environment, if this keyword and value are not specified, the output is displayed to the console.
- DISCARD=n
- Maximum number of rows (0 to 99999999) that can be discarded when you restart/retry a process. (This value overrides the discard row limit specified in the Insert Request.)
- COMMIT=n
- Frequency for committing processed rows to the database when you restart or retry a process. Specify any number between 1 and the maximum set in Product Options. (This value overrides the commit frequency specified in the Insert Request.)
- QUIETx
- Indicator for prompts or error dialogs during a process. Specify QUIET directly followed by a plus ( + ) or minus ( - ) sign. (Do not insert a space.)
- The QUIET indicator applies to all process requests in
a parameter file. If you use the keyword more than once, the last
specification is used.Note: For a UNIX or Linux environment, the QUIET keyword is ignored, because prompts and error dialogs are unavailable.
- QUIET+
- Do not display prompts or error dialogs (default).
- QUIET-
- Display prompts and error dialogs. (Invoke privilege is required to run a process that requires the display of editor interfaces. For example, Invoke Create privilege is required to retry an Insert Process that requires creating destination database tables.)
- MONITORx
- Indicator for the Progress dialog during a process. Specify MONITOR directly followed by a plus ( + ) or minus ( - ) sign. (Do not insert a space.)
- The MONITOR indicator applies to all process requests in
a parameter file. If you use the keyword more than once, the last
specification is used.Note: For the UNIX or Linux environment, the MONITOR keyword is ignored, because the Progress dialog is unavailable.
- MONITOR+
- Display the Progress dialog.
- MONITOR-
- Do not display the Progress dialog (default).
