Viewing Informix Database Instance Properties Using the Commvault Command Line Interface

Use XML to view Informix database instance properties. Run the operation from the command line, or automate configuration by combining command line operations in a script.

Use this command to:

• View the current Informix database instance properties

You can include the XML parameters in the xml file, or you can specify them on the command line when they frequently change. For more information on command line parameters and XML elements, see Command Line - Syntax.
