To add a new phone book by command line

  1. Open Command prompt.

  2. At the command prompt, type the following:

    cd \Program Files\PBA

  3. At the command prompt, type the following, using the appropriate file name for the new phone book:

    Pbadmin.exe /N*[phone_book_name]*

    A phone book name must contain no more than eight characters, cannot consist of all digits, and must not contain a space or any of the following symbols: ! , ; * = / \ : ? ' " < > | . & % {} [] @ ( ) ´ ` ~

    For example, if you want to create a phone book with the name of Awesome, you type:

    Pbadmin.exe /N Awesome

    Command-line parameters are case-sensitive.

  4. Press ENTER to add your new phone book to the database.

Important

  • If you intend to administer PBA from the command line, do not use spaces in the path to pbadmin.exe or in the path to the phone book files.
