Invoking the OpenAccess SDK Management Command Line in a Client/Server Configuration

You can start the OpenAccess SDK Management Command Line from the program group or from the command line.
To start the OpenAccess SDK Management Command Line, select its icon from the Progress DataDirect OpenAccess SDK / Server and IP SDK program group.
You invoke the OpenAccess SDK Management Command Line using the following syntax:

executable [-nologo] [-i script_file] [-o output_file] [-e error_file]
[-l | -r host:port] [-uid user_id [-pwd password]] [command]
where:
executable is installdir\admin\oacla.exe on Windows and installdir/admin/oacla.sh on Linux/UNIX.
-nologo disables the display of the copyright banner.
-i script_file specifies a script file to execute.
-o output_file specifies the name of a file in which the command-line tool will write all of its output (except errors).
-e error_file specifies the name of a file in which the command-line tool will write all its errors (not normal output). All error and normal output can be written to the same file if the file specified for the -o and -e flags is the same.
-l specifies to use the local host configuration.
-r host:port specifies to use the remote host configuration. In this case, you must specify the host name and port of the remote server.
-uid user_id specifies the user ID to use for local or remote host configuration. This parameter is valid only in combination with the -l or -r parameters.
-pwd password specifies a password to use for local or remote host configuration. This parameter is valid only in combination with the -l or -r parameters.
command is the name of any OpenAccess SDK Manager command and its parameters. See OpenAccess SDK Manager Commands for a list and description of each command.
