Reading Input From a File

To pass data from a file to a command, identify the file by adding the prefix file: to the file name.

For example, if you have stored a session ID in a file and want to use the file to authenticate the hdb.h.la command, use the file as input to the command.


cr_cli -cmd hdb.h.la -s file:session

If you did not create the session with the -o serialized argument, you can pass a serialized version of the file to another command by using the ser: prefix.


cr_cli -cmd hdb.h.la -s ser:session
