Specifies that the database server messages window is not minimized on startup.

{ dbsrv11 | dbeng11 } -qn ...

Applies to

Windows

Linux (if X window server is used)

Remarks

By default, the database server messages window automatically minimizes once database server startup completes. When this option is specified, the database server messages window does not minimize after the database server starts.

The database server messages window may appear in the background if an application autostarting the database server it is not active and -qn is specified.

On Linux, you must specify the -ux option (use X window server) with the -qn option.
