One or more spaces separate command parameters and their qualifiers from the command keyword. Command parameters define the file, index, or entity on which the command will act. In most cases, you can omit the parameter from the command line and enter it in response to a prompt. In the following sample command, RMU/DUMP is the command keyword and MF_PERSONNEL is the command parameter: $ RMU/DUMP MF_PERSONNEL When a storage area is a command parameter in an Oracle RMU command, use the storage area name instead of the storage area file specification. For example: $ RMU/RESTORE/AREA MF_PERSONNEL.RBF EMPIDS_LOW/THRESHOLDS=(65,75,80) Some commands, such as the RMU Backup command, require two or more command parameters. If you provide all parameters (for example, a root file specification and a backup file name), there are no prompts. Other commands, such as the RMU Restore command, have one required and one optional command parameter. In this case, there are no prompts if you provide the backup parameter but not the storage area parameter. However, if you do not provide either parameter, Oracle RMU prompts for both.
