Use Single-user Mode (-1) with a Progress executable module to start Progress in single-user mode. In this mode, only one user can access the database.

The PRO Command invokes the Progress executable with -1 by default, but only for the first database named on the command line. Each additional database must already have a server running in multi-user mode, unless a -1 is added to its parameter list. In the following example, db1 and db3 are connected in single-user mode; db2 is connected in multi-user mode:

pro db1 -db db2 -db db3 -1
