Neoview Command Interface (NCI) Guide (R2.5)

Considerations
• To run this command in SQL mode, you must first run the CMDOPEN command. This
command does not run in CS mode.
• The command requires an SQL terminator.
• Only users associated with roles that have OPERATOR privileges can execute this command.
For more information, see the “ADD USER Command” (page 158) or “ALTER USER
Command” (page 167).
• The association server can be in any state but it must exist.
• If the NDCS service is already in the available state, START SERVICE is successful (that is,
does not return any errors) but has no effect.
Example
This command starts the service $MXOAS:
SQL>start service $mxoas;
STATUS DS Command
The STATUS DS command displays the status of one or more data sources.
Syntax
STATUS DS $service-name[, DSNAME data-source-name]
$service-name
is the name of the association server of the NDCS service
DSNAME data-source-name
is the name of the data source. data-source-name is case-sensitive and cannot be the
asterisk (*) wild card. If you do not specify a data source name, the command displays the
status of all the data sources running in the specified NDCS service.
Considerations
• To run this command in SQL mode, you must first run the CMDOPEN command. This
command does not run in CS mode.
• The command requires an SQL terminator.
• The wild card (*) is not supported for the data source name, and the data source name is
case-sensitive.
• If you do not specify a data source name, the command displays the status of all the data
sources running in the specified NDCS service.
• The command displays this information for one or more data sources in an NDCS service:
Table C-5 STATUS DS Output
DescriptionColumn
Data source nameDSNAME
Start mode for the data source:
0 = automatic
1 = manual
If the start mode is 0 (or a negative number), the data source starts
automatically. If this value is greater than 0, you must start the data source
manually.
