(page 146).
Setting and Showing the Idle Timeout Value for the Session
The idle timeout value of a session determines when the session expires after a period of inactivity.
To set the idle timeout value of a session, enter the SET IDLETIMEOUT command. For example,
this SET IDLETIMEOUT 0 command sets the idle timeout to an infinite amount of time so that
the session never expires:
SQL>set idletimeout 0
SQL>
To show the idle timeout value that is in effect for the session, enter the SHOW IDLETIMEOUT
command. For example, this SHOW IDLETIMEOUT command displays an idle timeout of zero
minutes, which means that the session never expires:
SQL>show idletimeout
IDLETIMEOUT 0 min(s) [Never Expires]
SQL>
For more information, see the “SET IDLETIMEOUT Command” (page 121) and the “SHOW
IDLETIMEOUT Command” (page 137).
Customizing the Standard Prompt
To change the standard prompt in the NCI interface, use one or both of these commands:
• “SET PROMPT Command” (page 127)
• “SET TIME Command” (page 61)
SET PROMPT Command
The SET PROMPT command changes the default prompt to a specified character or string. For
example, this SET PROMPT command changes the prompt to the operating mode (SQL) and
ENTER>:
SQL>set prompt "%MODE ENTER>"
SQL ENTER>
For more information, see the “SET PROMPT Command” (page 127).
SET TIME Command
The SET TIME ON command causes the current time of the client workstation to be displayed
in the prompt:
SQL ENTER>set time on
20:32:26 SQL ENTER>
The SET TIME OFF command removes the current time from the prompt:
20:32:26 SQL ENTER>set time off
SQL ENTER>
For more information, see the “SET TIME Command” (page 131).
