The home directory should be an 27absolute pathname. The last component of each home directory specified 28must be unique because that is how clients specify which database environment 29they want to join. 30<p>Recovery will be run on each specified environment before the server 31begins accepting requests from clients. For this reason, only one copy 32of the server program should ever be run at any time because recovery 33must always be single-threaded.</p></ul> 34<b>-I</b><ul compact><li>Set the default idle timeout for client environments to the specified 35number of seconds.

If a client application requests a server 47timeout greater than the maximum timeout set for this server, the 48client's timeout will be capped at the maximum timeout value.</ul> 49<b>-V</b><ul compact><li>Write the library version number to the standard output, and exit.</ul> 50<b>-v</b><ul compact><li>Run in verbose mode.</ul> 51<br> 52<p>The berkeley_db_svc utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.</p> 53<br><b>Environment Variables</b> 54<br> 55<b>DB_HOME</b><ul compact><li>If the <b>-h</b> option is not specified and the environment variable 56DB_HOME is set, it is used as the path of the database home, as described 57in <a href="../api_c/env_open.html">DB_ENV->open</a>.</ul> 58<br> 59</tt> 60<p><font size=1>Copyright (c) 1996,2008 Oracle.
