OpenEdge Data Management: DataServer for ODBC
Connecting the DataServer : Starting a remote DataServer : Starting the UNIX client process
 

Starting the UNIX client process

After starting the remote broker, you start the OpenEdge client process on your UNIX machine by running this executable:
pro
You can supply the connection parameters required by the DataServer when you start the client process, or you can include them in the Connection Parameters field when you create a schema holder. For example, this command starts the OpenEdge client, connects a read-only schema holder named odbholder, and connects the ODBC data source demo with the user bob whose password is bobpass:
pro odbholder -RO -db demo -dt ODBC -ld odbdemo -H host1 -S oserviceA
-N TCP -U bob -P bobpass
See Connecting a schema holder for descriptions of the required command line.
