    HDBSETUP using -noprompt

     

    Problem: Executing hdbsetup -cr option with -noprompt fails.

    The undocumented -dvr option is required else the execution will fail.

     

    Solution: I tested this scenario with R12.5 against a sql server database using the following params:

     

    Since I already had an existing "harvest" dsn and "harvest" database instance, I used "harvest2"

    to run the test to create a new harvest2 database instance.

     

    Note that -dvr= was required, this is not documented in the Implementation Guide.

     

    hdbsetup -cr -s -svr=MyHarvestSqlServer -conmethod=Sqlserver
    -dvr="SQL Server Native Client 10.0" -dsn=harvest2 -dbn=harvest2
    -ausr=sa -apwd=******** -husr=harvest -hpwd=******** -noprompt

     

    Results were successful in the hdbsetup.log as follows:
