SDM Command Line

The SDM command line functions can be used instead of the GUI. The command line can be used to create a batch file or cron job for SDM operations, but Novell recommends using auto-archiving instead. Auto-archiving can be configured on the Partition Configuration tab of the SDM GUI.

The first step to using the SDM command line is to create a file that stores the connection properties for the database.
