OS Command Line Database Creation

I have searched all day and cannot find anything on this subject. Is it possible while the server is down for me to create a new database using a template from the OS command line on AIX 5.3

Any feedback is appreciated.

Off the top of my head - just copy the *.ntf into a new *.nsf.

You cannot modify it in any way, but that is a new database based off the template. If your template has it’s design inheritance set to itself, then that should carry over to the new database.

You should be able to do this on AIX if you compile a program using Domino C/C++ API. Using available examples in the API toolkit it shouldn’t be too difficult.

Something like this: http://www-12.lotus.com/ldd/doc/tools/c/7.0/api70ug.nsf/85255d56004d2bfd85255b1800631684/85255d56004d2bfd85255d4c003d67bf?OpenDocument

What are you trying to do???

You could create the DB and then move it there after you have shut the server down… I have not heard of a way to create a DB via a command line and the server not being up.

You could always create it on a notes client and then move the DB???
