Configuring MicroStrategy Using Command Line Tools

MicroStrategy tools are provided in command line mode on Linux so that you can perform various configuration tasks through the operating system console. This enables you to perform your required configurations even if you do not have access to the MicroStrategy interface.

On a Windows machine, it is recommended to use the appropriate MicroStrategy interfaces to perform the configurations described in this chapter.

When you perform MicroStrategy configuration tasks through a Linux operating system console, you must make sure reserved words and characters are not mistakenly included in your commands. To avoid issues caused by reserved words and characters, see Supporting Reserved Words and Characters.
