Performing configuration tasks in a command line

Use the command line utilities to perform configuration tasks in Mongoose.

These utilities are available using a Command Line Interface (CLI):

Utility Description
InforDBCL.exe This utility contains the configuration tasks that involve databases. These are the available commands, with links to the appropriate sections for details:
InforWebCL.exe This utility contains all configuration tasks associated with IIS and clients. These are the available commands, with links to the appropriate sections for details:
InforServiceCL.exe This utility contains the configuration tasks dealing with Windows services and replication. These are the available commands, with links to the appropriate sections for details:
Note: The command must be the first argument. All command options in brackets are optional. Values that contain spaces must be in double quotes.

InforDbCL.exe CreateDb

Use this command to create a new database.

These are the available command options, formatted (and some with examples):

Command option: Description/Examples:
-databasename This option specifies the name of the SQL database.
-dbtype This option specifies what type of database it is. Types include these:
  • App
  • Objects
  • Forms
  • Templates

This command is required unless you are using the -allinonedb option.

[-allinonedb] This value is used to create an all-in-one database, where application, form, object, and template objects all reside in the same database.
[-collation] This option specifies the means of collation to be used in sorting the SQL data. Valid values are those supported by your version of SQL Server.
[-clouddb]:True/False When set to True, this option indicates that the database must be set up for use in the multi-tenant cloud. When this option is used, it also sets the [-populatedb] option to True.
[-dbspec] This option specifies the name of a specific database to be created; for example, ApplicationDbDemo or ApplicationDb.

This option is a technical designation of the database type, beyond the four normal types used for the -dbtype option. This option is rarely used: The only time you might want to use this option is when you have an application that is using its own unique database type.

[-dbsubtype]

This option specifies a subtype for the database. Alternatives include these:

  • Initialized: If this option is not specified, this is the default value. This value applies only to -dbtype:App databases.
  • Empty: This value is used for migrations from Progress to SQL, or for an application database schema with no data. This value is non-functional until key data is provided.
  • Demo: This value is for a database, where dummy demo data is provided.
[-log] Use this option to specify the complete path to the log file.
[-password] This value is not required for Windows authentication.
[-populatedb]:True/False When set to True, this option indicates that an empty database has been created already and needs just to be populated with the schema and the data.

[-product] This option specifies the name of the Mongoose-based application that corresponds to the registry key; for example, Mongoose or SL.
[-scripteddb] Use this option to specify that the cloud database is a scripted one, and not restored from old image.
