Neoview Command Interface (NCI) Guide (R2.4)

Considerations
• You must enter the command on one line. The command does not require an SQL terminator.
• Only ROLE.MGR can execute this command.
Example
This ALLOW command gives access to the dumpfile.
SQL>ALLOW SERVICES ACCESS TO DUMPFILES
--- NS operation complete.
CLEAR Command
The CLEAR command clears the interface window so that only the prompt appears at the top
of the window. CLEAR does not clear the log file or reset the settings of the session.
Syntax
CLEAR
Considerations
You must enter the command on one line. The command does not require an SQL terminator.
Example
This CLEAR command clears the interface window:
SQL>clear
After the CLEAR command executes, the interface window appears with only the prompt
showing:
SQL>
CONNECT Command
The CONNECT command creates a new connection to the Neoview platform from the current
or existing NCI session.
Syntax
CONNECT [username [/password][@hostname][,dsnName]]
username
specifies the user name to log in to the database platform. If the user name is not specified,
NCI prompts for the user name.
password
specifies the password of the user to log in to the database platform. If the password is not
specified, NCI prompts for the password.
hostname
specifies the host name or IP address of the database platform to which you want the client
to connect. If the hostname is not specified, the value is automatically used from the current
NCI session. If NCI was invoked with the -noconnect launch parameter, you are prompted
for a hostname value.
