Hi all,

Does anyone know if there are some ways to start a schedule daemon safely
while 'passwordaccess' is set to 'prompt' ? This happens when we want to
backup Oracle automatically . Here is what we do:

#nohup dsmc sched -password=secretexxxx -optfile=dsm.opt &

But if someone types 'ps -ef' command, the whole command line will show up
and he can see the password. This happens on Solaris system; on AIX, the
'secretexxxx' will not be shown.
