You can enter additional parameters for DBM options. The parameters are explained in the descriptions of the respective DBM option.
You can also enter additional command options for the DBM command. These command options are explained in the descriptions of the respective DBM command.
Input help is also provided for the DBM commands.
For information about the format of the return values for DBM commands, see Reply Format.
dbmcli [<dbm_options>] [<dbm_command> [command_options]]
If you use DBM options with parameters, mark the
beginning of the following DBM command with the option –c (Indicate as DBM
Command: -c).
By doing so, you prevent the Database Manager program interpreting the
beginning of the DBM command as a parameter of the previous DBM option.
