Enterprise SQL Server Manager Reference Manual

Chapter 1
IntroductionIn addition to its graphical user interface (GUI), Enterprise SQL Server Manager includes a rich set of commands that let you manipulate Enterprise SQL Server Manager resources from the operating system command line or from within scripts.
Scripts that combine Enterprise SQL Server Manager commands, Tivoli Management Environment (TME) commands, and virtually any scripting language (Bourne shell, C shell, Korn shell, Perl, and others) can be powerful tools for batch processing repetitive or large-scale SQL Server management chores. Furthermore, you can define these scripts as tasks in the Tivoli Management Platform (TMP) task library for use by other administrators, and schedule them as jobs in the TMP scheduler. See Tivoli Management Platform User's Guide for more on the TMP task library and scheduler.
