hpnvs-installation-directoryis the directory where you installed the Neoview Script software files. For more information, see Table 2-1 (page 34). Check that no space is after the colon (:) in the path.

NOTE: In the C shell, use the setenv command instead of export.

3.To activate the changes, either log out and log in again or execute the user profile. For example:

. .profile

4.On the command line, execute the hpnvs.sh file to launch Neoview Script: hpnvs.sh

The Neoview Script interface appears, prompting you to enter the host name or IP address of the database platform, your user name, password, and a data source name. See “Logging In to the Database Platform” (page 45).

NOTE: To enable all users to launch Neoview Script anywhere on the system, create a symbolic link to the hpnvs.sh file in the /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin directory:

ln -s ./hpnvs-installation-directory/nvscript/bin/hpnvs.sh /usr/bin/hpnvs.sh

Presetting the Optional Launch Parameters

To preset the optional launch parameters for each session, use an alias command. For example:

alias hpnvs='hpnvs.sh -h sys0101.mylab.mycorp.net:18650 -u dba1 -p xxxxxx -dsn DataSourceName'

You can add the alias, hpnvs, to the user profile, or you can enter it at a command prompt. For more information about the optional launch parameters, see “Using Optional Launch Parameters” (page 46).

Host Name/IP Address: _

Enter a host name: host-name[.domain-name][:port-number]

If you do not specify the domain name, Neoview Script uses the domain of the client workstation.

Or enter an IP address:

IP-address[:port-number]

2.Enter your user name.
