When starting solidDB, you can use command-line options, for example, to override certain parameter settings or invoke database operations such as database conversion.
At your operating system command prompt, use the following syntax:
The previous command starts a solidDB server and encrypts an existing database where:
▪ -U = user name: admin
▪ -P = password: admin123
▪ -x listen = network listening name: tcp 2315
▪ -E = encrypts the database
▪ -S = encryption password: admin
A full list of the available command-line options is available in Command line options. You can also view the options with the command-line option -h or -?, for example:
solid -h
If the syntax of the command is incorrect, a list of the valid options is displayed.
