Utilities Support for Database Triggers
(V. 2.1) A new parameter was added to
gbak, nbackup and isql
to suppress Database Triggers from
running. It is available only to the database owner and SYSDBA:
gbak -nodbtriggers
isql -nodbtriggers
nbackup -T
Command-line utilities that take a -password
parameter are vulnerable to password sniffing, especially when the utility is
run from a script. As a step towards hardening against this on POSIX platforms,
the [PASSWORD] argument now displays the process list as an asterisk ( * ),
where previously it showed in clear.
