 Starting the Database Instance 

Use

Prerequisites

You have the DBM operator authorization DBStart.

If you are using the Microsoft Windows operating system, this database instance must be registered as a service under the name SAP DB: <database_name>. This is done implicitly when you create a database instance with the database manager.

Syntax

db_start [<option>]

option

Kernel variant with which the database instance is to be started:
-f | -fast

-q | –quick

-s | –slow

If you do not specify an option, the fast variant of the database kernel is started.

The -q | -quick and -s | -slow options should only be used in case of error and in consultation with support.
