The main administration interface for the solidDB^® server is the ADMIN COMMAND SQL extension that is used to executed administrative commands. The ADMIN COMMANDs are used for operations such as creating backups of the database, invoking performance monitoring, or displaying information about users connected to the database. The ADMIN COMMANDs can also be used for changing certain configuration settings dynamically.

The solidDB^® package includes two command-line utilities that you can use to execute the administrative commands.
