Modify the SQLCMD Path Variable
SQLCMD is a command-line utility that allows you to use Transact-SQL statements, system procedures,
and script files at the command prompt. To ensure that VCM Patching recognizes the SQLCMD path in a
three-tier installation, you must modify the environment variable to point to the path where SQLCMDis
installed.
In a three-tier split installation, SQLCMD is installed on the Web server, VCM Collector, and VCM
database server when you install Client Connectivity Tools or Management Tools - Basic.
