DBM commands are the commands that can be executed in Database Manager CLI for managing databases.
All DBM commands executed during a Database Manager session refer to the database whose name was specified with the option -d when logging on to Database Manager CLI.
The right to execute a DBM command can be subject to three prerequisites:
Logging on to Database Manager (see: user_logon)
Logging on to the operating system (see: user_system)
You can find out which of these prerequisites must be fulfilled to execute a specific DBM command by looking at its description.
