Neoview Workload Management Services Guide (R2.5)

Description or ActionAttribute or Field
Enter your password. Passwords are case-sensitive.
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
You might be required to supply two passwords if you are one of these types of users:
• Power database user (that is, a locally authenticated database user) associated with
ROLE.MGR, ROLE.SECMGR, or ROLE.DBA
• Platform user associated with one of the platform roles: SUPER.name, HP.name, or
NEOVIEW.name
For more information about security policy options, see the Neoview User Management
and Security Administration Guide.
Password
Enter your role name, such as ROLE.DBA. Role names are case-insensitive.
Each user is associated with a Neoview role, which has privileges defined for it, and some
users are assigned to multiple roles. If you omit the role, the Neoview Performance
Analyzer (or the Neoview Query Viewer) applies your default role to the session.
NOTE: To connect to a Neoview platform using the Neoview Performance Analyzer,
you must have permission to access data in the Neoview Repository views.
Role Name
Enter the host name or IP address of the Neoview platform to which you want to connect.Host Name
Enter the port number.
If you omit the port number, the Neoview Performance Analyzer (or the Neoview Query
Viewer) uses the default port number, which is 18650.

Using the Neoview Command Interface (NCI)
If you want to execute the WMS commands in a command-line interface or from script files off
of the Neoview platform, install NCI on your client workstation. For installation instructions,
see the README for the HP Neoview Command Interface (NCI).
How to Execute WMS Commands in NCI
By default, NCI sessions are in SQL mode. To execute WMS commands in NCI, you must be in
either NS or WMS mode. If you are not in NS or WMS mode, you must precede the WMS
command with the .NS or .WMS prefix and a space.
This example shows the use of the .WMS prefix in SQL mode:
SQL>.wms info wms;
NOTE: If you use the .WMS or .NS prefix, the WMS command must be on a single line.
To change to NS or WMS mode, enter the MODE NS or MODE WMS command:
• After you enter the MODE NS command in NCI, the prompt changes to NS% as this example
shows:
SQL>mode ns
NS%
• After you enter the MODE WMS command in NCI, the prompt changes to WMS> as this
example shows:
SQL>mode wms
WMS>
