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

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 for logging in to the database platform. If the user name is not
specified, NCI prompts for the user name.
If the user name contains spaces or special characters, such as a period (.), hyphen (-), or
underscore (_), put the name within double quotes. For example:
"neo.user-1"
password
specifies the password of the user for logging in to the database platform. If the password is
not specified, NCI prompts for the password.
If the password contains spaces or special characters, such as @ or a single quote ('), put the
password within double quotes. For example:
"HPNe@v1ew/sdfss"
Depending on the security policies in force at your site, you might be required to supply two
passwords—your own user password and a role password. If you are required to enter two
passwords, specify both passwords using this format:
userpassword/rolepassword
