Hi everyone,
I have a question that I came to know from an exam. I can’t figure out the answer.
How can you Test the Database from command prompt so that you can
be able to test the Secondary keys & relationship with primary key?
Please help me on this.
hotcopy.exe (which you may find if you install Database Server) can, besides copy of db, do db test.
but, I think that this only works on native dbs…

The answer here is to start the server.exe (refers only to native db) via commandline using the parameters dbtest {min|normal|max} and testtarget {@screen|@eventlog|filepath }. For details please refer to the “Installation & System Management ” document.
I found that you can use fin.exe to do the same, in the very same document…
You can also test the database without opening the program. You start the test by
setting the program property DB Test in the Target field (see page 47). Here is an
example:
d:\Microsoft Business Solutions–Navision\Client\fin.exe
servername=My Server, ntauthentication=yes, database=database.fdb,
dbtest=normal
But, I didn’t find that you can use Server.exe in this manner… just Hotcopy.exe

Yes, sure not server.exe but fin.exe . Sorry, I was a little bit confused … [*-)]
Yes! Using fin.exe, it is working perfectly well from command prompt. Thank you both for helping so much!!!
