Creating the Database Manager CLI
The Database Manager CLI is created in the SAP DB development environment by processing information from a
link description. This link description is a file of the lnk file type, and is called dbmcli.lnk ($OWN/sys/desc/dbmcli.lnk, see also General Directory Structure of the SAP DB Development Environment).Processing this link description leads to the creation of an executable program. The file
dbmcli.lnk also defines where the executable program is stored:Procedure
Enter the following command:
imf dbmcli
For information about the command
imf, see ims.pl; imq.pl; imf.pl.This command instructs the development environment to process the
link description dbmcli.lnk .The link description file does not have to be specified with its type (
lnk), since its name is unique. The development environment automatically determines the type of the link description file, and, therefore, the type of processing.Result
