You can use the cmdfile command to run any command if the shell on your host limits the number of characters that can appear on a command line.

Example

This example creates a profile by including the profile create command in command.txt located at /tmp. You can then run the smo cmdfile command.

The text file contains the following information:

profile create -profile SALES1 -repository -dbname SNAPMGRR
-login -username server1_user -password ontap -port 1521 -host server1
-database -dbname SMO -sid SMO -login -username sys -password oracle -port 1521
-host Host2 -osaccount oracle -osgroup db2

You can now create the profile by running the smo cmdfile command with the command.txt file:

smo cmdfile -file /tmp/command.txt
