Defining the Utility Database Name When Connecting

Specify the database name to start the utility database.

You cannot specify a database file when starting the utility database, because no database file is associated with that database. You must specify the database name when connecting.
Specify utility_db as the database name when connecting.
For example:
dbisqlc -c "uid=dba;pwd=sql;eng=myserver;dbn=utility_db"
Note: When you connect to the utility database to create an IQ database having Windows raw partitions, note that there is a syntax difference in the IQ PATH. For example, to specify a Windows raw partition on device I: for the utility database, you can use the specification “\\.\I:” On other IQ databases, you must double the slash characters, so that the same device would be specified “\\\\.\\I:”. The backslash character is treated as an escape character in IQ databases but as a normal character in the utility database.
