Options

-d control-statements-filename<pathname> ((up to 255 characters)

HiRDB/Single Server

Specifies the absolute path name of the file that contains control statements for the database initialization utility.

HiRDB/Parallel Server

Specifies the absolute path name of the file that contains control statements for the database initialization utility. The control statements file must be created in the server machine where the dictionary server is located.

-u authorization-identifier <identifier> ((1-8 characters))

Specifies an authorization identifier to which DBA privileges are to be granted and that is to be registered in HiRDB.

When this option is omitted
When this option is omitted, the system assumes that the user name associated with the OS account of the user who is executing the pdinit command is specified in this option. If that OS account has the root privileges, the system then assumes that root is specified in this option.
Rules for option specification
If the authorization identifier contains lowercase letters, enclose the entire identifier in double quotation marks ("); otherwise, the system treats the specification as being in all uppercase letters. If you use the Bourne shell (sh), C shell (csh), or Korn shell (ksh), you must enclose the entire specification in single quotation marks (').
Remarks
This option can also be specified when HiRDB is installed as an extension of open middleware that uses HiRDB.

-p password <identifier> ((1-30 characters))

Specifies the password for the authorization identifier specified in the -u option.

If the password contains lowercase letters, enclose the entire identifier in double quotation marks ("); otherwise, the system treats the specification as being in all uppercase letters. If you use the Bourne shell (sh), C shell (csh), or Korn shell (ksh), you must enclose the entire specification in single quotation marks (').

When this option is omitted, the system registers the authorization identifier character string specified in the -u option as the password.

The following shows the relationship between the -u and -p option values and the authorization identifier and password that are registered in HiRDB:

-u option specification	-p option specification	Authorization identifier registered in HiRDB	Password registered in HiRDB
HIR001	sytg0421	HIR001	sytg0421
HIR001	Omitted	HIR001	HIR001
Omitted	Omitted	User name for the OS account (if it has root privileges, root)	User name for the OS account (if it has root privileges, root)
