Running Commands in Interactive Mode

Running Commands in Interactive Mode

Use
pmcmd
 in interactive mode to start and stop workflows and sessions without writing a script. When you use the interactive mode, you enter connection information such as domain name, Integration Service name, user name, and password. You can run subsequent commands without entering the connection information for each command.
For example, the following commands invoke the interactive mode, establish a connection to Integration Service “MyIntService,” and start workflows “wf_SalesAvg” and “wf_SalesTotal” in folder “SalesEast”:
pmcmd
pmcmd> connect -sv MyIntService -d MyDomain -u seller3 -p jackson
pmcmd> setfolder SalesEast
pmcmd> startworkflow wf_SalesAvg
pmcmd> startworkflow wf_SalesTotal
To run pmcmd commands in interactive mode:
  1. At the command prompt, switch to the directory where the
    pmcmd
     executable is located.
    By default, the
    PowerCenter
    installer installs pmcmd
     in the \server\bin directory.
  2. At the command prompt, type
    pmcmd
    .
    This starts
    pmcmd
     in interactive mode and displays the
    pmcmd>
     prompt. You do not have to type
    pmcmd
     before each command in interactive mode.
  3. Enter connection information for the domain and Integration Service. For example:
    connect -sv MyIntService -d MyDomain -u seller3 -p jackson
  4. Type a command and its options and arguments in the following format:
    command_name
     [-option1] 
    argument_1
     [-option2] 
    argument_2
    ...
    pmcmd
     runs the command and displays the prompt again.
  5. Type
    exit
     to end an interactive session.
