-ui database server option

Opens the Server Startup Options window, displays the database server messages window, and starts the database server whether or not the X window server starts.

Syntax

dbsrv16 -ui ...

The -ui option allows you to use the Server Startup Options window to specify server options when starting the database server, and to display the database server messages window once the database server has started.

When the -ui database server option is the only option specified, the Server Startup Options window appears where you can enter options for starting the database server.

The database server attempts to find a usable display when -ui is specified. If it cannot find one, for example because the DISPLAY environment variable isn't set or because X window server isn't running, then the database server starts in shell mode. If you do not want the database server to start when it cannot locate a usable display, specify the -ux option rather than -ui. You should only specify one of -uc, -ui, -um, or -ux.

For information about starting the database server as a daemon, see -ud database server option.
