Starting and running multi-user OpenEdge in interactive mode on UNIX
Enter the following command to start and run OpenEdge in interactive mode:
mpro [ db-name ][ parameters ]
db-name
Specifies the database you want to start. If the database is not in the current directory, you must specify the full pathname of the database.
parameters
Specifies the startup parameters you want to use.
On UNIX, the MPRO command starts either a local or remote client. If the Host Name (-H) and Service Name (-S) parameters are supplied, OpenEdge starts a remote client—a client that is assigned to a server. Otherwise, OpenEdge starts a local self-service client. Note that specifying -H and -S when starting a client on the local host machine actually produces a "local remote client" (a local process that accesses the database through a server).
The database you name when starting multi-user OpenEdge must be in the current directory, or you must specify the full pathname of the database. For example, if you are using UNIX and you log in as sue, the login directory is /usr/sue.
