STARTDBE 

Starts the DBE session for SQLGEN execution.

Scope 

SQLGEN Only

SQLGEN Syntax 

>> START[DBE] [DBEnvironmentName]

Parameters 

DBEnvironmentName       is the name of the DBEnvironment to which you
                        wish to connect.

Description 

STARTDBE connects to the DBEnvironment and then checks to see if you have
DBA authority for the DBEnvironment.  If you do not, the DBEnvironment is
released, since you cannot use SQLGEN to generate commands unless you
have DBA authority.  It is recommended that the DBEnvironment be shut
down prior to issuing the STARTDBE command to ensure that system catalogs
are not being modified during SQLGEN execution.  Note that the
DBEnvironment name can be entered as a parameter of the STARTDBE command
or SQLGEN will prompt for the DBEnvironment name, as in the following
example.

Example 

     >> startdbe 
     DBEnvironment Name >> PartsDBE.SomeGrp.SomeAcct 

     DBEnvironment successfully started.
