Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Deployment:
Startup Command and Parameter Reference

> ## Single-user Mode (-1)

> Use Single-user Mode (`-1`) with an OpenEdge executable module to start OpenEdge in single-user mode. In this mode, only one user can access the database.

> Operating system and syntax | UNIX Windows | `-1`
> Use with | Maximum value | Minimum value | Single-user default | Multi-user default
> Client Connection | – | – | – | –

> The PRO command invokes the OpenEdge executable with `-1` by default, but only for the first database named on the command line. Each additional database must already have a server running in multi-user mode, unless `-1` is added to its parameter list. In the following example, `db1` and `db3` are connected in single-user mode; `db2` is connected in multi-user mode:

>     pro db1 -db db2 -db db3 -1
