Function Check 

You can check the function of the Database Manager CLI by executing a DBM server command.

    dbmcli [-n <server_node>] -d <database_name> -u <dbm_userid>,<dbm_password> dbm_version
    For more information about DBM Server commands, see the Database Manager CLI: SAP DB 7.3 documentation.
